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?"
