They Call It Stormy Monday

They call it stormy Monday, yes but Tuesday's just as bad

They call it stormy Monday, yes but Tuesday's just as bad

Wednesday's even worse, Thursday's awful sad

The eagle flies on Friday, Saturday I go out to play

The eagle flies on Friday but Saturday I go out to play

Sunday I go to church where I kneel down and pray

And I say, "Lord have mercy, Lord have mercy on me

Lord have mercy, Lord have mercy on me

Just trying to find my baby

Won't You please send her on back to me?"

The eagle flies on Friday, on Saturday I go out to play

The eagle flies on Friday, on Saturday I go out to play

Sunday I go to church where I kneel down, Lord and I pray

Then I say, "Lord have mercy, won't You please have mercy on me

Lord, oh Lord have mercy

Yeah, won't You please, please have mercy on me

I'm just a-lookin' for my sweet babe

So won't You please send him home, send him on home to me?"
