SOMEONE WOKE ME UP THIS MORNIN' AND I LIT A CIGARETTE
FOUND MYSELF WHEN I STOPPED YAWNIN', STARTED GETTING MYSELF DRESSED
THEN I FELT THAT I HAD A DREAM
I REMEMBERED THE THINGS THAT I'D SEEN
I COULD STILL HEAR THE THINGS YOU SAID WITH THAT BAD DREAM IN MY HEAD
IT WAS A SAD DAY, BAD DAY, SAD DAY, BAD DAY
SO I CALLED YOU ON THE PHONE AND YOUR FRIEND SAID "SHE'S NOT HOME"
SO I TOLD HER WHERE I'D BE AT AND THAT YOU SHOULD CALL ME BACK
THEN I LOOKED AT THE MORNING MAIL, I WAS NOT EVEN EXPECTING A BILL
YOUR LETTER-A-STARTED "DEAR," AND IT LEFT ME WITH THESE TEARS
IT WAS A SAD DAY, BAD DAY, SAD DAY, BAD DAY
THINK OF THE TIMES THAT WE HAD ROWS, BUT WE PATCHED THEM UP SOMEHOW
THINK OF THE TIMES I TRIED TO GO, BUT YOU SCREAMED AND TOLD ME NOW
THERE IS ONLY ONE THING IN THIS WORLD THAT I CAN'T UNDERSTAND
THAT'S A GIRL
I KEEP A-READIN' THE THINGS YOU SAID LIKE A BAD DREAM IN MY HEAD
IT WAS A SAD DAY, BAD DAY, SAD DAY, BAD DAY
OH, WHAT A SAD, SAD, OLD DAY - A SAD, OL DAY
IT WAS A SAD, OLD DAY
A SAD, OLD DAY, IT WAS A BAD, OLD DAY
SAD OLD DAY A BAD OLD DAY
IF THERE IS ONE AWFUL THING IN THIS WORLD THAT I CAN'T UNDERSTAND
THAT'S A GIRL
IT WAS A SAD, SAD, OLD DAY, SAD OLD DAY
IT WAS A SAD, OLD DAY
