So Early in the Morning

When I was young, I had no sense,
I bought a fiddle for eighteen pence.
The only tune that it would play
Was Over the Hills and Far Away.

cho: So early in the morning,
     So early in the morning,
     So early in the morning,
     Before the break of day.

My Aunt Jane she called me in
She gave me tea out of a tin,
Half a bag of sugar on the top
And three black lumps out of her wee shop
