It was an early morning yesterday   I was up before the dawn   And I really have enjoyed my stay   But I must be moving on      Like a King without a castle   Like a Queen without a throne   I'm an early morning lover   And I must be moving on      Now I believe in what you say   Is the undisputed truth   But I have to have things my own way   To keep me in my youth      Like a ship without an anchor   Like a slave without a chain   Just the thought of those sweet ladies   Sends a shiver through my veins      And I will go on shining   Shining like brand new   I'll never look behind me   My troubles will be few      Goodbye stranger, it's been nice   Hope you find your paradise   Tried to see your point of view   Hope your dreams will all come true      Goodbye Mary, goodbye Jane   Will we ever meet again   Feel no sorrow, feel no shame   Come tomorrow, feel no pain      Now some they do and some they don't   And some you just can't tell   And some they will and some they won't   With some it's just as well      You can laugh at my behavior   That'll never bother me   Say the devil is my savior   But I don't pay no heed      And I will go on shining   Shining like brand new   I'll never look behind me   My troubles will be few   Goodbye stranger it's been nice etc
