Songtexte On a Monday - Stringbean

On Monday I was arrested
On Tuesday locked up in jail
On Wednesday trial was attested
On Thursday no matter what go about me

Yes it's almost done
Yes it's almost done
Yes it's almost done
And I ain't gonna wring no other window bell

Take these stripes, stripes around my shoulder
Take these chains, chains around my neck
Lord these stripes, they sure don't work me
Lord these chains, chains round to me neck

Yes it's almost done
Yes it's almost done
Yes it's almost done
And I ain't gonna wring no other window bell

Monday, sittin' down and talking
On Tuesday she locked me outta doors
Wednesday, sittin' down and talking
Thursday, she pawned all my gold

Yes it's almost done
Yes it's almost done
Yes it's almost done
And I ain't gonna wring no other window
