Mornin'

Al Jarreau · Best Of Al Jarreau [1996]

Mornin' Mister Radio ..... Mornin' little cheerios

Mornin' sister Oriole ..... did I tell you everything is fine in my mind?



Mornin' Mister shoe-shine man ..... shine'em bright in white and tan,

Baby said she loves me and ..... need I tell you that everything here is just fine

in my mind.



Chorus: 'Scuse me if I sing ..... my heart has found it's wings,

Searchin' high and low and now at last I know.



Mornin' Mister Golden Gate ..... I should walk but I can't wait,

I can't wait to set it straight ..... I was shakin' but now I am makin' it fine

here in my mind.



Bridge: My heart will soar with love that's rare and real,

My smiling face will feel every cloud.

And higher still beyond the blue until,

I know I can ... like any man ... reach out my hand ...

and touch the face of God.



(SOLO)



Chorus: 'Scuse me if I sing ..... my heart has found it's wings,

Searchin' high and low and now at last I know.



Mornin' Mister Radio ..... Mornin' little cheerios,

Mornin' sister Oriole ..... did I tell you everything is fine in my mind.



Ending: Won't you get up, Oriole,

Won't you get up, Cheerio,

Wake up, Mister Radio,
