Monday Morning Merle

[Verse 1]

Monday morning Merle

Don't worry ’bout the girl he used to love

Tuesday's throwback, Springsteen

"Devils & Dust"

[Chorus]

Wednesday spins the Beatles

Thursday is the Eagles

"Take It Easy" 'til that Friday rocks his world

After Saturday on Jackson Browne

He’s Sunday morning coming down

Then he's right back to missing that girl

Turns up "Misery and Gin"

Here we are again

At Monday morning Merle

[Verse 2]

Monday morning Merle

Lets that old broken heart get back to work

He hides all the holes and the hurt

Under the dirt on his shirt

And the only way that he can get

Through the days and the regret

Is a song full of truth with some words he never said

With those whiskey remedies

And those old school melodies you can't forget

[Chorus]

That's why on Wednesday spins the Beatles

Thursday is the Eagles

"Take It Easy" 'til that Friday rocks his world

After Saturday on Jackson Browne

He's Sunday morning coming down

And he's right back to missing that girl

Turns up "Misery and Gin"

Here we are again

Monday morning Merle

[Instrumental Bridge]

[Chorus]

Wednesday spins the Beatles

Thursday is the Eagles

"Take It Easy" 'til that Friday rocks his world

After Saturday on Jackson Browne

He’s Sunday morning coming down

And he’s right back to missing that girl

Turns up "Misery and Gin"

Here we are again

At Monday morning Merle

[Outro]

That's just the way I am

Sing me back home again

To Monday morning Merle

Monday morning Merle
