[Verse 1] When Christopher Columbus returned to Spain The wise men asked him would you please explain How’d you know the world was round he said I used my brain And I get up early in the morning [Chorus] Well get up and get up when the sun comes up Don’t lay there dozin’ like a lazy pup Health and wealth will overflow your cup If you get up early in the morning [Verse 2] Andrew Jackson fought the British down in New Orleans And he sent them runnin’ through the turnip greens When they wondered how he did it he said were just mean And I get up early in the morning [Chorus 2] Well get up and get up when the sun comes up And don’t lay there dozin’ like a lazy pup Health and wealth will overflow your cup If you get up early in the morning They asked Casanova man uh what you got That makes all the women think that you’re so hot He said well my little secret boys believe it or not Is I get up early in the morning [Chorus 3] Well get up and get up when the sun comes up Don’t lay there dozin’ like a lazy pup Health and wealth will overflow your cup If you get up early in the morning
