Early one morning I was on my way to school
Before I leave you baby gotta tell you bout my teachers rule
Well I love you pretty baby gonna tell all the world I do
I love you pretty baby gonna tell all the world I do
If you should ever leave me I'm surely gonna lose my soul
This is what I'm gonna do
I'm gonna take my heart right out me
And mail it back to you
It was early one morning I was on my way to school
Before I leave you baby gotta tell you bout my teachers rule
Well if you say that you don't want me
This is what I'm gonna do
I'm gonna take my heart right out me
And mail it back to you
Well I love you pretty baby gonna tell all the world I do
If you should ever leave me I'm surely gonna lose my soul
The song "Early One Morning" by The Blues Busters is a love song about a man on his way to school who loves his significant other deeply. He expresses his affection for her and tells her that he will tell the whole world about his love for her. However, he also expresses his worry that if she ever leaves him, he will lose his soul, emphasizing how important she is to him. He also mentions a rule from his teacher, which he wants to share with his love before leaving.
The lyrics show the depth of emotion the singer feels for his significant other, and how it is a central part of his life. The line "If you should ever leave me I'm surely gonna lose my soul" reveals the importance of their relationship to him. The mention of the teacher's rule may signify the song's protagonist is a student, possibly a young love, which adds a touch of innocence to the song's lyrics.
