On A Monday

(huddie ledbetter)

(d) - (a) - (c) - (e)



(d) on a monday, i was ar (a) rested

On a tuesday, i was locked up in (d) jail

On a wednesday, my trial was at (a) tested

On a thursday, nobody would go my (d) bail

(d) al (c) most (a) done, i'm almost (e) done, (d) al (c) most (a) done

And i ain't gonna bring them yellow women no (d) pail



Take these stripes, stripes from around my shoulder

Take these chains, these chains from around my legs

Lord, these stripes, it sure don't worry me

But these chains, these chain's gonna kill me dead



Yes, i'm almost done, almost done, almost done

And i ain't gonna bring them yellow women no pail



On friday, my baby went a-walking

On a saturday, she locked me outa the door

On a sunday, we were sitting down a-talking

On a monday, she pawned all of my clothes
