Van Morrison On A Monday Lyrics

[Verse 1]
On a Monday, I was arrested
On a Tuesday, I was locked up in jail
On a Wednesday, my trial was attested
On a Thursday, nobody wouldn't go my bail

[Chorus]
And I'm almost, almost done
Yes I'm almost, almost done
And I'm almost, almost done
And I ain't gonna bring them yellow womens no pail

[Verse 2]
Take these stripes, stripes 'round my shoulder
Take these chains from around my legs
Lord, these stripes, they sure don't worry me
But these chains, these chains gonna kill me dead

[Chorus]
And I'm almost, almost done
Yes I'm almost, almost done
And I'm almost, almost done
And I ain't gonna bring them yеllow womens no pail [Verse 3]
On a Friday, my baby went out walking
On a Saturday, she lockеd me out the door
On a Sunday, we were sittin' down and talking
On a Monday, she had pawned all my clothes

[Chorus]
Well, I'm almost, almost done
Yes I'm almost, almost done
Well, I'm almost, almost done
And I ain't gonna bring them yellow womens no pail
Well, I'm almost, almost done
And I'm al—, almost done
Yes I'm almost, almost done
And I ain't gonna bring them yellow womens no pail
And I ain't gonna bring them yellow womens no pail
And I ain't gonna bring them yellow womens no pail
