"Woke up this mornin'"? Don't think so!

This facebook post became blogworthy because of comments by friends . . . . 

My initial post:
What is it with blues songs that open with, "Well I woke up this mornin', sun was startin' to rise ...." 
When I feel blue, I wake up in the evening, maaaybe the afternoon. 
Morning is for SLEEPING after you're up all night worrying about the way things might have been, or up all night doing the music thing ~~ playing or writing or blogging or imagining new riffs or rhymes or rhythms. 
So I just might rewrite some of those songs to say, "Well I woke up this evenin', sun was sinkin' away ...."
Here's the link to facebook to see the comments:
