Sunrise early morning I've never been so tired Stayed awake all through the night got something on my mind I had a friend I loved she said that she loved me But monday's coming 'round and I'm alone it's just whiskey and me
On Friday when she left me took everything she owned Her bad records, her bad knickers, her bad TV and her old clothes I wanted to possess her she wanted to be free Now Monday's coming 'round I'm alone it's just whiskey and me
Next day I got lonely took a ride out in my car Wound up drinking heavy in a smokey singles bar I had a friend I loved I thought that she loved me Yeah Monday's coming 'round and I'm alone it's just whiskey and me
Sunday I went looking and I found her in the park I took out my revolver and I shot her in the heart She said she wanted freedom I guess I set her free, yeah Now Monday's coming 'round and I'm alone it's just whiskey and me
