"Once In The Morning" lyrics - JIMMY WEBB

I was lying and stayed on my attaless couch
I said, Doc, I've got the feeling
I've been calling a grouch
You know, my all chairs are falling
And I'm a devil being a slouch
He said he reached inside his hard hands
For a alligator pouch
And he said

Once in the morning and once at night
I'm not sure that it will help you
But you don't think it's alright
Once in the afternoon and once by twilight
Once for the morning and again round midnight

I was playing in Las Vegas
I was feeling kinda flat
When Jan the fan dancer
Came by for a chat
You know, she loosened up her A-string
And she reached outside her hat
She said, "you'll play with this
Son, I'll play with that" (yeah-eah)

Once in the morning and once at night
I'm not sure that it will help you
But you don't think it's alright
Once in the afternoon and once by twilight
Once for the morning and again round midnight

I was hanging round London
Trying to pick up a new line
When the man I did not know
He invited me a dime
He said, "we can make each other happy
You know, we're both the same kind
And I'll write some of yours
If you please take some of mine

Once in the morning and once at night
I'm not sure that it will help you
But you don't think it's alright
Once in the afternoon and once by twilight
Once for the morning and again
Once for the morning and again
Once for the morning and again
