Well the eagle flies on Friday
Now the eagle flies on Friday
Oh Lord have mercy
Lord have mercy on me
Lord, Wednesday's worse
Thursday's all so sad
Oh, won't send her home to me, yeah, that's all
Well I cry, Lord I cry, Lord have mercy
The Lord have mercy on me
Lord, on Saturday I go out, well I go out to play
Lord, I kneel down to pray
Won't somebody please send her home to me
Lord this is mercy
Sunday I go to church
You know I cry, Lord have mercy
They call it Stormy Monday
But Tuesday's just as bad
Saturday I go out to play
The Lord have mercy
Though I'm tryin', tryin' to find my baby
Lord have mercy on me
Lord you know I'm tryin', tryin', tryin' to find my baby
Lord have mercy on me
