Ive had a hard time wakin this mornin,
Ive got a lotta things on my mind,
Like those friends of yours who keep bringin me down,
Just hangin round all the time.

Ive had a hard time walkin most mornins
And its been that way for a month or more,
Youve had things your way but now Ive got to say,
Im on my way out the door.

Why dont you get right,
Try to get right, baby.
You havnt been right with me.
Why dont you get right,
Try and get right, baby.
Dont you remember how it used to be?

You had a hard time wakin this mornin,
And I can see it in your empty eyes,
But theres no need for talkin or walkin round the block
Just to figure out the reason why.
Ive had a hard time handin out warnins,
Ill Just slide on out the door
Cause Im tired of everything bein Beautiful, Beautiful!
And I aint comin back no more!

Why dont you get right,
Try to get right, baby.
You havnt been right with me.
Why dont you get right,
Try and get right, baby.
Dont you remember how it used to be?

Why dont you get right,
Try to get right, baby.
You havnt been right with me.
Why dont you get right,
Try and get right, baby.
Dont you remember how it used to be?
