Thread Name: Origins: Today Is Monday
Subject: RE: Need lyrics to Today Is Monday
Does anyone recall the workaday words to this song? I remember being taught as a wee bairn to sing a version that started something like:

Today is Monday
Today is Monday
Monday: wash-day
All you hungry brothers
We wish the same to you.

I believe there were chores mentioned for each day, but Friday was still kept as "Friday: fish-day". My memory would appreciate any forthcoming assistance!

Tapadh leibh,
