about

This is the FIRST (not Rap) song ever written by Tony B. Conscious and serves as his signature, trademark tune.

lyrics

EARLY IN DA MORNIN’

Well, I woke up early dis mornin’......Laying in my bed
And had this crazy tune.......Floating through my head
So I got outta bed.......and decided this is what I’d do
I decided I’d write this song....so now I’m singing it just for you

Early in da mornin’ (I’ve got to get up)
Early in da mornin’ (I’ve got to get up)
Early in da morning.....

They say it’s the early bird that catches the worm
And living day to day, this is what I’ve learned
So I never sleep in, not even until nine
I’m up at five in the morning...trying to get mine

Early in da mornin’ (I’ve got to get up)
Early in da mornin’ (I’ve got to get up)
Early in da morning...

So many people sleep in America everyday
And they just watch their dreams, just up and walk away
That’s why people, what you’ve got to choose
Is to wake up at the crack of dawn, that way you’ll never lose....

Early in da mornin’ (I’ve got to get up)
Early in da mornin’ (I’ve got to get up)
Early in da morning.....

I’ve always wanted to make it, in the recording industry
But there’s a million guys, out there just like me
Struggling hard...day in and day out
Sometimes I get so frustrated...I just wanna scream and shout
(but)
Early in da mornin’ (I still get up)
Early in da mornin’ (working on my music)
Early in da morning...(early in da morning)
Early in da mornin’ (I STILL get up)
Early in da mornin’ (working on my music)
Early in da morning.....
(scattin’)
YO my name is Tony B, and you know just where I be
With the pillow up under my head
Early in da morning lying in bed
Waking up at the crack of dawn and
Yo know that I’m yawnin’
Trying to put my clothes on and
Get out the house, early in da morning...
