Monday morning blues Monday morning blues
Monday morning blues, searched all through my bones.

Monday morning blues Monday morning blues
Monday morning blues, made me leave my home.

I've been laying in jail I've been laying in jail
I've been laying in jail, six long weeks today.

Lord, tomorrow morning Lord, tomorrow morning
Lord, tomorrow morning, gonna be my trial day.

Lord, I asked the judge Well, I asked the judge
Well, I asked the judge, what might be my crime.

Get a pick and shovel Get a pick and shovel
Get a pick and shovel, let's go down in the mine.

That's the only time That's the only time
That's the only time, I ever felt like cryin'

Well, my heart struck sorrow Well, my heart struck sorrow
Well, my heart struck sorrow, tears come rolling down.

I woke up this morning I woke up this morning
Woke up this morning, with the monday morning blues
