Early in the morning

Just by the break of day

Well, that's when my

Patience went away She took her bags but she left all her clothes

She took her keys and left me out in the cold Wearing a plastic coat

And the pressures of life through lack of patience

I get the pressures of her Patience is a girl that I hate

To love the way I do, but I do

She wakes me up in the morning

Through squeaking in my dreams She took her bags but she left all her clothes

She took her keys and left me out in the cold All because of patience

I get the pressures of life through lack of patience

I get the pressures of her She beat me up and left me out

In the pouring rain

Without no keys, without no reason

To go back again She left me empty-handed

She left me empty-hearted

Not no money

Not nothing but the blues All because of patience

I get the pressures of life through lack of patience

I get the pressures of her She said the one thing

That she needs is happiness

I don't believe that she's happy

'Til she sees that I'm in distress No, all because of patience

I get the pressures of life through lack of patience

I get the pressures of her and I swoon
