Every Day In The Week

I woke up this morning, when the clock was striking four

You oughta heard my baby cry, ‘daddy, please don’t go’

I can’t believe you woman, God knows I have to go

Had the blues so long since I made my poor heart so

Well the blues jumped the devil, run the devil a solid mile

The devil sat down and he cried like a newborn child

If you’ve got you one woman, well you sure better get you five

Cuz two might quit you and the other three might die

I’ve got a Monday woman, works on 4th and Main

I’ve got a Tuesday woman brings me all her change

My Wednesday woman brings me whiskey and beer

I’ve got a Thursday woman, raise sand if she catch me here

My Friday woman just won’t treat me right,

I got a Saturday woman I declare works me all night

My Sunday woman leaves me on my own to sleep

You gotta know about that, got a gal every day in the week

I don’t love no yellow woman, and I ain’t crazy about no brown

Cuz you can’t tell the difference I declare when the sun go down

My old grandma, and my grandpa, both of them got old and grey

If grandpa hadn’t a talked careful I wouldn’t have been here today

I’m going to sing this verse and I declare I ain’t gonna sing no more

I’m gonna leave here directly, gonna walk and tell everything I know
