Oh yeah!
Ahh!
You're gonna wake up one morning as the sun greets the dawn.
You're gonna wake up one morning as the sun greets the dawn.
You're gonna look around in your mind, girl, you're gonna find that
I'm gone.
You didn't realize,
You didn't realize,
You didn't realize,
You didn't realize,
You didn't realize.
Oh! you're gonna miss me, baby.
Oh! you're gonna miss me, baby.
Oh! you're gonna miss me, child, yeah, yeah.
I gave you the warning,
But you never heeded it.
How can you say you miss my lovin,
When you never needed it?
Yeah! Yeah! Ow!
You're gonna wake up wonderin',
Find yourself all alone,
But what's gonna stop me, baby?
I'm not comin' home.
I'm not comin' home.
I'm not comin' home.
Oh, oh, oh, yeah!
Not pool party music.

Classic Tune! The Crowd are all clean cut Boys & Gals,Clapping & Bopping away to the music,If Tommy Hall had his way & Dosed Em' it probably wouldn't have been so wholesome! Now that would have been a sight worth seeing!!

I've seen this one before and its great to see it again!
One of the top 10 best Garage Rock / Psychedelic songs of all time, in my opinion!
Check out the original version by The Spades, which is also here on YouTube. Roky and The Elevators made it much more electric. Great tune, thanks for the upload!

God bless Roky Erickson! As misery1965 sez, after all these years this song NEVER fails to get me going.
