On A Monday - Jerry Douglas

On A Monday - Jerry Douglas
On a Monday I was arrested
On a Tuesday I was locked up in jail
On a Wednesday my trial was contested
On a Thursday nobody would pay my bail
And Im all almost down
Yes I know almost dead
Almost down
Yes I know almost dead
And I aint gonna bring them yellow and we know I can
Take the straps straps around my shoulders
Take these chains these chains around my legs
Lord these straps these straps dont worry me
But these chains lord
These chains are gonna get me dead
And Im all almost down
Yes I know almost dead
And Im all almost down
And I aint gonna bring them yellow and we know I can
On a Friday my baby went on walking
On a Saturday she locked me out of that door
On a Sunday we sat down to talking
On a Monday she part all of my blues
And Im all almost down
Yes I know almost dead
Yes I know almost dead
And I aint gonna bring them yellow and we know I can
And Im all almost down
Yes I know almost dead
Yes I know almost dead
And I aint gonna bring them yellow and we know I can
