Good Morning Neighbor

Porter Wagoner · Thin Man From the West Plains (Bear Family) [1993]

(Floyd Wilson)



(Good morning neighbor this gloomy day

Let's go to church I'm on my way

Gonna lose my sorrow and every care

Good morning neighbor, I'll see you there.)



Now all I've got to wear in this old blue surge suit

And boy it looks like a real hand me down

But when I get my Bible under my arm and I head down the road

Why I feel like I'm the Mayor of the town.



(Good morning neighbor ain't it a pretty day

Let's go to church I'm on my way

Gonna lose my sorrow and every care

Good morning neighbor, I'll see you there.)



You see this old wrinkled hat why I keep it hangin' on a nail

It's about the funniest looking hat that I've ever seen

But when I get my Bible under my arm and I head down the road

Why I feel just like a new crowned King.



(Good morning neighbor ain't it a pretty day

Let's go to church I'm on my way

Gonna lose my sorrow and every care

Good morning neighbor, I'll see you there.)

Now I ain't got no money to give in Sunday school today

I've looked under the rug and everywhere

But when I get my Bible under my arm and I head down the road

Why I feel just like a millionaire.



(Good morning neighbor, ain't it a pretty day

Let's go to church, I'm on my way

Gonna lose my sorrow and every care

Good morning neighbor, well, I'll see you there...)
