Lyrics for Monday Morning Blues

1. I woke up this morning I woke up this morning I woke up this morning With the Monday morning blues 2. I couldn't hardly find (3x) My Monday morning shoes 3. Monday morning blues (3x) Ached all through my bones 4. Monday morning blues (3x) Made me leave my home 5. I been lyin' in jail (3x) Six long weeks today 6. Lord, tomorrow morning (3x) Gonna be my trial day 7. Well, I asked the jury (3x) What might be my fine 8. Get a pick and shovel (3x) Let's go down in the mine 9. That's the only time (3x) I ever felt like cryin' 10. Well, my heart took sorrow (3x) The tears come rollin' down 11. I woke up this morning (3x) With the Monday morning blues
