[Verse 1]
Oh, now here comes that feeling
When that cuckoo says it is 2:00
It has me reeling and got me feeling blue
Won't someone save my [?]
No, the time is creeping
My daddy [?] satisfied
When I am sleeping
He's weeping by my side

[Verse 2]
It's 2:00 AM, I didn't say it's 2:00 PM
And he's standing by the door
You're mine, always on time
You never seem to hug me, and honey, what's more
You'll stay 'til day dawns, then you [?] flying away

[Chorus]
[?] out of nowhere
They tell me awful bad news
I'll pay the piper when I'm done, I know
Then we'll be happy in your [?]
Now I'm alone to weep and moan
With those mean ol' 2:00 A.M. Blues

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
[?] out of nowhere
They tell me awful bad news
I'll pay the piper when I'm done, I know
Then we'll be happy in your [?]
Now I'm alone to weep and moan
With those mean ol' 2:00 A.M. Blues
