Get Up Jake Songtext

Get up Jake, it's late in the mornin'
The rain is pourin' we got work to do.
Get up Jake, there's no need a-lyin'
You tell me that your 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, it's late in the mornin'
The rain is pourin' we got work to do.
Get up Jake, there's no need a-lyin'
You tell me that your 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.
