Lyrics
Thursday's Child
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Monday's child is fair of face
And Tuesday's child is full of a grace
Wednesday's child is full of woe
But Thursday's child has far to go
Things look mighty black for Thursday's child
Trouble docks the track of Thursday's child
This world could be a wonderful place
But not when you wear a Thursday's face
I never know which way I'm bound, I'm Thursday's child
Heartbreak hangs around for Thursday's child
I'll always blamed for what I was named
But still I'm not ashamed, I'm Thursday's child
I never know which way I'm bound, I'm Thursday's child
Heartbreak hangs around for Thursday's child
I'll always blamed for what I was named
But still I'm not ashamed, I'm Thursday's child
