Jerry Douglas - On A Monday Lyrics

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
And I aint gonna bring them yellow 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
Yes I know, almost dead
And I aint gonna bring them yellow 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
And Im all, almost down
Yes I know, almost dead
And I aint gonna bring them yellow can.
