Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Whoa, oh, yeah
Whoa, oh, oh, oh, ah, ay
[Verse 2]
Got woke this morning by Mr. Sun
Shining through my window, I say, 'ello sun
I say 'ello sun, oh, yes
[Verse 3]
I was so glad to see the sun come shining through
I jumped out  my bed, I've got a lot of things to do
I can't waste time, time is so precious to me
[Verse 4]
If I waste time, I'll be right behind the line
And who to tell? I might even lose my mind
Lose my mind, yes, lose my mind
[Verse 5]
Give thanks to you, Mr. Sun, you kept me away
I was so lucky, didn't give no daybreak
So give thanks to you, Mr. Sun, oh, yeah
Give thanks to you, Mr. Sun, oh, no
[Verse 6]
Whoa, oh, Mr. Sun
Whoa, oh, oh, oh, oh, Mr. Sun
[Verse 7]
Got woke this morning by Mr. Sun
Shining through my window, I say, 'ello sun
I say 'ello sun, I say 'ello sun
[Verse 8]
I was so glad to see the sun come shining through
I jumped out my bed, I've got a lot of things to do
I can't waste time, time is so precious to me
I can't waste time, time is important  to me, yeah
Important to me, oh, yes
[Verse 9]
If I should waste time, I'll be behind the line
And who to tell? I might even lose my mind
Oh, yes, whoa, yeah
[Verse 10]
Whoa, oh, oh, ah, yeah
Whoa, oh, yeah
Whoa, oh, oh, oh, ah, nay
[Verse 11]
Got woke this morning by Mr. Sun
