When he leaves home this evenin',
Tell old bill when he leaves home to let those downtown girls
Alone, this mornin', this evenin', so soon.

This mornin', this evenin', so soon.

Oh, no! it can't be so this mornin'. oh, no! it can't be so this
Evenin'.
Oh, no! it can't be so. my bill left home about an hour ago,
This mornin', this evenin', so soon.

They brought bill home in a hurry-up wagon this mornin'. they
Brought bill home in a hurry-up wagon this evenin'.
Brought bill home in a hurry-up wagon. brought bill home with
His toes a-draggin' this mornin', this evenin', so soon. this
Mornin', this evenin', so soon. (repeat first verse)
