Walking in the Early Morning Dew

I saw you this morning, sneaking home to keep your secret

The morning sun was rising, when my eyes discovered you

The route that you’re taking, started up at Daddy's cabin

You’re coming down the mountain in the early morning dew

 

I stood behind the smokehouse, you didn't even see me

Or know that I suspicioned , you'd been in another's arms

The morning sun reflected on your face that looked contented

You were coming down the mountain near the edge of Daddy's farm

 

Chorus:

Walkin in the early morning dew

Creeping through the piney woods

While I stood watching you

I thought you were my loving wife until I spotted you

Walking in the early morning dew

 

 

Don't try to say you're sorry, It wouldn't stop this hurting

This tide of anger rising is too great to be controlled

If you had to be unfaithful, did it have to be my brother

That you chose to be your partner, is there no one else you know

 

I'll be leaving in the morning, Where I'll go I'm just not certain

But I have to find someplace where I'll never see the dew

That caused my darkest anger with the lowest sin imagined

That I know will be remembered with each fall of morning dew

 

Chorus:

Walkin in the early morning dew…

 

repeat chorus with vocals and bass only on first two lines

Then full band on last two lines
