It was early Monday morning
I was on my way to school
I went to study my lessons
So I wouldn't be nobody's fool

Monday morning! Monday morning!

I woke up Tuesday morning
And I ate my grits and eggs
Put shoes on my feet
But first I put socks on my legs

Tuesday morning! Tuesday morning!

Wednesday, Thursday, Friday
I was in school every day
I go five times a week
I get five times smarter that way

Wednesday, Thursday! Thursday, Friday!

Now I'm gonna tell you about the weekend!

Saturday and Sunday
Roosevelt Franklin can play

Saturday, Sunday! Saturday, Sunday!
