Verse 1
Headin' out to San Francisco
For the Labor Day weekend show
I got my Hush Puppies on
I guess I never was meant for glitter rock 'n' roll
PreChorus 1
And honey, I didn't know that I'd be missin' you so
Chorus 1
Come Monday, it'll be alright
Come Monday, I'll be holdin' you tight
I spent four lonely days in a brown L.A haze
And I just want you back by my side
Verse 2
Yes, it's been quite a summer
Rent-a-cars and westbound trains
And now you're off on vacation
Something you tried to explain
PreChorus 2
And, darlin', since I love you so
That's the reason I just let you go
Chorus 2
Come Monday, it'll be alright
Come Monday, I'll be holdin' you tight
I spent four lonely days in a brown L.A haze
And I just want you back by my side
Bridge
I can't help it honey
You're that much part of me now
Remember that night in Montana
When we said there'd be no room for doubt
Verse 3
I hope you're enjoying the scenery
I know that it's pretty up there
We can go hiking on Tuesday
With you I'd walk anywhere
PreChorus 3
California has worn me quite thin
I just can't wait to see you again
Chorus 3
Come Monday, it'll be alright
Come Monday, I'll be holdin' you tight
I spent four lonely days in a brown L.A haze
And I just want you back by my side
Outro
I spent four lonely days in a brown L.A haze
And I just want you back by my side
