Woke up this morning
Woke up this morning
Woke up this morning with the Monday morning blues
Couldn't hardly find
Couldn't hardly find
Couldn't hardly find my Monday morning shoes

Monday morning blues
Monday morning blues
Monday morning blues made me leave my home

Been laying in jail
I've been laying in jail
Been laying in jail six long weeks today
Lord, tomorrow morning
Lord, tomorrow morning
Lord, tomorrow morning gonna be my trial day

I asked the judge
I asked the judge
I asked the judge: What might be my fine?
Get a pick and shovel
A pick and shovel
Get a pick and shovel, go down to the mine

That's the only time
That's the only time
That's the only time I hung my head and cried
Lord, my heart struck sorrow
Heart struck sorrow
Lord, my heart struck sorrow, tears come rolling down
