Lyric Get Up, Jake

Get up, Jake, t s late in the mornin
The rain is pourin and we got work to do
Get up, Jake, there s no need a-lyin
You tell me that you re dyin , but I know it s not true

Now, me and Jake
We work down on the river on the ferry "Baltimore"
And when Jake don t rise up in the mornin
People lined up all along the shore

Get up, Jake, t s late in the mornin
The rain is pourin and we got work to do
Get up, Jake, there s no need a-lyin
You tell me that you re dyin , but I know it s not true

Crap game will take you to the cleaners
Rye whiskey to the grave
River Woman don t you come no closer
Cause me and Jake got no time to save, oh, oh

Get up, Jake, t s late in the mornin
The rain is pourin and we got work to do
Get up, Jake, there s no need a-lyin
You tell me that you re dyin , but I know it s not true

Dirty Dan he came up from Savannah
Carried a mean streak in his eye
Now, him and Jake both wanted Annabella
I guess one man here has got to die

Get up, Jake, it s late in the mornin
The rain is pourin and we got work to do
Get up, Jake, there s no need a-dyin
Annabelle s cryin and it s all for you
