Artist/Band: Jerry Lee Lewis
Lyrics for Song: Early Morning Rain
Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - Jerry Lee Lewis



In the early morning rain with a dollar in my hand


With an aching in my heart and my pockets full of sand


I'm a long way from home and I miss my loved ones so


In the early morning rain with no place to go





Out on runway number nine, big seven-o-seven set to go


But I'm stuck here in the grass with a pain that ever grows


Now the liquor tasted good and the women all were fast


Well now there she goes my friend, she's a-rolling down at last





Hear the mighty engines roar, see the silver wing on high





She's away and westward bound, far above the clouds she'll fly


Where the morning rain don't fall and the sun always shines


She'll be flying over my home in about three hours time





This old airport's got me down, it's no earthly good to me


'Cause I'm stuck here on the ground, as cold and drunk as I can be


You can't jump a jet plane like you can a freight train


So I'd best be on my way in the early morning rain


Early Morning Rain

Jerry Lee Lewis delivers a masterclass in emotional restraint on this haunting ballad. Known for his explosive piano attacks and wild stage presence, Lewis shifts gears here to explore a more somber, introspective side of his musical identity. The recording captures the raw vulnerability that defined much of his career, blending country storytelling with rock and roll intensity. While often associated with high-energy performances, this track highlights his ability to convey deep sorrow through a slower tempo and delicate phrasing. It stands as a testament to his versatility within the genre, showcasing a moment of quiet reflection amidst a discography filled with fiery anthems. The song remains a cherished example of his capacity to connect with listeners through genuine, unadorned emotion.
