LYRICS:
Monday's shine yes and Tuesday's rain
Well the days they go by baby like a south-bound train
Well it's funny thinkin' you won't ever call my name
Here comes lonely, here come the blues
Well the words they won't come babe, you know my tongue is cold
There's nothing new, blue lady, that won't get old
Yes a deal has gone down and I'd just better fold
Here comes lonely, here come the blues
You know the sun has run you know she's gone out to hide
Yes and I'm out walkin' where midnight rides
Just me, the good-time Charlies, and the suicides
Here comes lonely, here come the blues
Well Thursday's dry yes and Friday's just the same
Maybe come down blue Monday I will grab the brakes again
'Cos no bottle of pills babe can kill this pain
Here comes lonely, here come the blues
Here comes lonely, here come the blues
