Peter, Paul And Mary - Early Mornin' Rain Lyrics
In the early mornin' rain with a dollar in my hand
And an aching in my heart, and my pockets full of sand
I'm a long way from home, and I miss my loved one so
In the early mornin' rain with no place to go.
But I'm out here on the grass where the pavement never grows
Well the liquor tasted good and the women all were fast
There she goes my friend, she's rollin' down at last.
Hear the mighty engine roar, see the silver wing on high
She's away and westward bound far above the clouds she'll fly
Where the mornin' rain don't fall and the sun always shines
She'll be flyin' o're my home in about three hours time.
This old airport's got me down, it's no earthly good to me
Cold and drunk, as I might be.
Can't jump a jet plane like you can a freight train
So I'd best be on my way in the early mornin' rain.
So I'd best be on my way in the early mornin' rain

This is a beautiful song. The vocal harmonies and guitar sound great.
Can't they afford a mic for Mary?
They could at least have bought three microphones and give her one too...

Beautiful. AURAPHIL thanks for sharing. GOD bless!
If I don’t know anything else in life, I do know this ... and that is ... Peter, Paul and Mary could do no wrong. Their talent and music is truly missed but at least it lives on FOREVER.
Sublime
Written by Gordon Lightfoot...👍
This reached only No. 91 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1965
My heroes when I was learning guitar in the late 60s
Classic Counterpoint Harmony, by real pros ------------RIP, gorgeous Mary.-----------WolfSky9

*Early Morning Rain*
I love this song as it brings back so many memories of being on the road and far from home while serving my country.
Liquid gold. Words and music in such harmony that your soul crys out for more. God bless PP&M.

Len len Lab
one of the greatest of all time
Takes me back to a time of flying a twin prop out of an old airport with all the ambience of a bus depot...
Thanks to Gordon Lightfoot who wrote this great song.
Wonderful, you don‘t hear something like that today....
Gordon Lightfoot wrote and composed the song in 1964, but its genesis took root during his 1960 sojourn in Westlake, Los Angeles. Throughout this time, Lightfoot sometimes became homesick and would go out to the Los Angeles International Airport on rainy days to watch the approaching aircraft.[1] The imagery of the flights taking off into the overcast sky was still with him when, in 1964, he was caring for his 5-month-old baby son and he thought, "I’ll put him over here in his crib, and I’ll write myself a tune." "Early Morning Rain" was the result.
good version. best done by elvis presley.
I sat in Geneva Airport(Cornavin) 1996.
With this song in my ears,
Waiting for a plane to fly me out of there.
Leaving my six year old daughter behind, unable to say goodbye, unable to do anything about it.
In the early morning rain.....with no place to go....
This is my favourite Peter, Paul and Mary song. Thank you.
Great cover of a Gordon Lightfoot song.
It is odd to think that evil was brewing inside of Trump, during those times.
Mary....very powerfull voice! God Bless you, RIP Mary!
You will be always on my mind!
懐かしい歌声ですね~~~。👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏。
Awesome!
on écouterait des heures !
I want to know who are the assholes who this song and performance a thumbs down do I can punch them in the 👃!!!
I think I see a Mellineal!
I remember performing in a puppet show in the park is summer of 1964 with Puff The Magic Dragon playing as theme (a new song then). Memories of the past can be as sweet as PP&M or as sad as a lost love
...this how one feels...when you don't have enough money to pay your bills...and you are humbled....
So many sweet memories of the 60's with the simple but profound harmonies of P, P, & M. Classic and always picked meaningful songs.
There are no song writers of the calibre of Gordon Lightfoot today.
Nice song written by Gordon Lightfoot.
I miss all 3 of them! :'-(
Best version of Gordon Lightfoot's masterpiece. Every time I hear this I think of some poor soldier in Vietnam, homesick and tired of fighting, tired of seeing his friends killed... Hauntingly sad.
Paul Weller' s version is raw and emotional. I love it
I miss this kind of performing & songwriting: just acoustic string music and beautiful vocals... Oh man, you tend to forget how good these people were!
My favorite group to listen to I played my fathers album for hours every day I could sing every part on every song but the big man upstairs decided he was going to take my vocal chords 2 years ago damn i wish I could sing again
You have to give props to the bass player too. It's a shame he wasn't included in the TV shot until the very end.
PETER YARROW IS A CONVICTED PEDOPHILE. Check it out in the UK NEWS
I've just discovered them. Their sound is achingly beautiful.
Love them! Such great harmony. Got to watch & hear them at the Hollywood Bowl in the early 70's, and they were consummate performers.
I first learned this as a marching song. "In the early morning rain, with a rifle in my hand, an aching in my feet, and my boots are full of sand"
One of the most beautiful songs you could ever listen to.
it has been pouring fr the last 6 hours, this song just puts me in my place with a hot cocoa curled up inthe sofa
Love the guitar picking on this very song. It inspired me when I was in high school and my parents gave me my wish... a Martin D-18 for my graduation fifty years ago. Not long ago, I brought it in for servicing and was offered an unbelievable amount to sell it. No, I wouldn't part with it for a million! I played it for our kids when they were toddlers. I just did "Puff the Magic Dragon " on it for our grandchildren.
Still lovely after all these years...
ediors choice for this song! thanks PP&M
Ah, the first of the cannabis and caffeine crowd. The counterculture beatniks changed the world for the better.
Always.
Takes me back in time too. In the early morning rain, with a rifle in my hand, an aching in my feet, and my boots are full of sand....
I was 20 and sloughing in the paddies when I heard this song. Great memories, unforgettable buddies here and gone.
yes i totally agree with others. I am 63 years old and i remember the love in my heart during this beautiful time in spirit. Deep change :
This song also sung by Elvis. Looks like Peter Sutcliffe on the left.
Total brilliance... Try and capture this proper version on your local juke box if you can.. Hidden gems they called...??..... Come on.. Lovex this ki nda of music back t hen when I wS 5 ish.

My favorite version of this song
who's the bassist on the right?
Lo que más me impresiona de este video es la chica con su hermosa cabellera natural y saludable sin los innumerables tratamientos que hoy se aplican las mujeres.
Mr. Tesla, can you please build me a time machine so I can go back to the 60's when music was really music and we weren't infested with political correctness and other madness of today?
This is what you call true talent and class, boys and girls. Mary's not flashing her boobs all over the screen during the performance and Peter and Paul are not gangsta rapping about grabbing Mary's booty. This is when music was practically equivalent to having a spiritual experience and people sang about MEANINGFUL things in life and didn't resort to cheap theatrics in order to sell records. Musicians absolutely loved what they did and it really showed in their craftsmanship.
I am 64 now and still love and play this song.

As an 18 year Marine I can relate to this so many years ago. Many a goodbye I have said to a life like normal people get. After 30 years serving, what did all those goodbyes get me? Lonesone, lonely, by myself. Yep.
