On a Monday

Ry Cooder

On a Monday, I was arrested 
On a Tuesday, I was locked up in jail 
On a Wednesday, my trial was at tested 
On a Thursday, nobody would go my bail 
Almost done, I'm almost done, almost done 
And I ain't gonna bring them yellow women no pail 

Take these stripes, stripes from around my shoulder 
Take these chains, these chains from around my legs 
Lord, these stripes, it sure don't worry me 
But these chains, these chain's gonna kill me dead 

Yes, I'm almost done, almost done, almost done 
And I ain't gonna bring them yellow women no pail 

On Friday, my baby went a-walking 
On a Saturday, she locked me outa the door 
On a Sunday, we were sitting down a-talking 
On a Monday, she pawned all of my clothes
