Lyrics for 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?"
