Monday caught me early (Kris Kristofferson)

Monday caught me early comin' down by surprise
Waitin' for a signal-light to change
Breathin' somethin' bitter that was burnin' my eyes
Thinkin' I'd go drink myself back home on the range

Shot down and sinkin' fast on Sunset Strip
Holdin' on to somethin' in my head
Everything gets heavy when you're losin' your grip
Nothin' looks as empty as a motel bed

Lord, I'm still a stranger in this god-forsaken land
Farther from my future and my friends
I'm gonna take enough to wake me up
And make me one last one-night-stand
Then take me home to somethin's gonna smile at me again

Break my connections when I shake me loose
Give my old equipment to the band
Let my friend the devil pay the rest of my dues
Take me home to somethin's gonna smile at me again

Lord, I'm still a stranger in this god-forsaken land
Farther from my future and my friends
I'm gonna take enough to wake me up
And make me one last one-night-stand
Then take me home to somethin's gonna smile at me again
