version of ALTON ELLIS's joyous rock-steady anthem from the great 1970 Studio One album "Sunday Coming".
lyrics
JOY IN THE MORNING Alton Ellis
Ah ah aaaa
you bring I joy in the morning
ah ah aaaa
you bring I joy in the morning
1
The evening sun went down, all over town
all over town
I'm sitting all alone, feeling so blue
so blue
Ah ah aaaa
you bring I joy in the morning
ah ah aaaa
you bring I joy in the morning
2
Every now and then, I wonder why
I wonder why
now why should I be so bad
why not play it cool
stick by the rules
Ah ah aaaa
you bring I joy in the morning
ah ah aaaa
you bring I joy in the morning
