They call it stormy Moday, but Tuesday's just as bad
They call it stormy Moday, but Tuesday's just as bad
Wednesday's worse, and Thursday's also sad

Yes the eagle flies on Friday, and Saturday I go out to play
Eagle flies on Friday, and Saturday I go out to play
Sunday I go to church, then I kneel down and pray

Lord have mercy, Lord have mercy on me
Lord have mercy, my heart's in misery
Crazy about my baby, yes, send her back to me

Let your hair down baby,
Let's have a natural ball.
Let your hair down baby,
Let's have a natural ball.
Cause when you're not happy,
It ain't no fun at all.

You can't take it with you,
That's one thing for sure.
You can't take it with you baby,
That's one thing for sure.
There's nothing wrong with ya baby,
That a good T-Bone shuffle can't cure.

Have fun while ya can,
Fate's an aweful thing.
Have fun while ya can,
Fate's an aweful thing.
You can't tell what might happen,
That's why I love to sing.

I've got a west side baby
She lives way across town

*I've got a west side baby
She lives way across town
And when I'm with my baby
I don't want a soul around

Now she's kind of tall and legged
She's always dressed swell
She sets my soul on fire
When she rang my front door bell

(Repeat *)

Now Monday morning early
Someone bang upon my door
I knew it wasn't my baby
'Cuz she's never knocked before

So I lay in bed and wondered
Wno could the caller be
I thought it was insurance man
'Cuz he's been hurting for me

Crazy about my west side baby
She lives way across town
And when I'm with my baby
I don't want a soul around

Party girl, party girl.
Why don't you stay at home.
Party girl, party girl.
Why don't you stay at home.
You've lost all your glamour,
And your health its almost gone.

Party girl, party girl.
You used to be so fine.
Party girl, party girl,
You used to be so fine.
Bright lights and whiskey has caused you to lose your mind.

You drink straight whiskey,
Til it makes your tonsells sore.
You've got bags under your eyes
Big as a barn yard door.
Wake up Party girl, don't you know the cops around.
Your dead on your feet,
And your on your last go round.

tell me whats the reason you keep on teasin me
you said you don't want me but you won't let me be
tell me whats the reason you do the things you do
you're breakin my achin heart till it pains me through and through

i get up in the mornin
feelin kind of good
hopin my baby
will do the things she should
i hold you in my arms
tight
and the only thing you want is another fight

cmon pretty baby
heard you got a boyfriend you don't want anymore
you're just as fine as any girl could be
i would take you everywhere
to parties to
i would do most anything you would want me to do
i heard about you a long time ago
and if you will be mine i'd take you any place I'd go
say baby
sure look fine to me
you're just as fine as any gal can be

It's a cold-blooded world
When a man has to pawn his shoes
It's a cold-blooded world
When a man has to pawn his shoes
That's the fix I'm in today
I swear I've been abused
Yes, the woman is a devil
She will trick you if she can
Yes, the woman is a devil
She will trick you if she can
She will tell you that she love you
An work out some other plan
Got those alimony blues
An I sure got to pay some dues
Got those alimony blues
An I sure got to pay some dues
And if I run short of cash
It's the road camp, I've got to choose.

i've got a society woman
she gets the best of everything
yes i got a society woman
she gets the best of everything
she lives in luxury
but she keeps me in the strings
well she want to be a cover girl
and make headlines in the news
she eats steaks and chicken
i eat plain old kidney stew
i love my society woman
but love ain't worth the price i pay
i bought enough love to last me until my dying days

you don't love me, i don't even care
you don't love me, i don't even care
i could get a woman like you anyplace anywhere
bye bye baby
momma if you call i'm gone

i've got a brand new woman to move in your happy home

someday baby
mommma when you change your ways
someday baby
momma when you change your ways
them things will be different
you can have your same old place
