Startin' Monday Lyrics

Startin' Monday

I'm cleanin' the slate,

Gonna quit smokin'

Start losin' some weight

Tell someone I'm sorry,

Oh its gonna be great

Startin' Monday

Startin' Monday

I'll be cheatin' fate

Here, I've written it down,

I've circled the date

Right now is not good

But I'll charge out the gate

Startin' Monday

I know I've said it before,

But this time I'm determined

To be what I know I can be

Don't need a "how-to" book

Or some do-gooders sermon

To change my own destiny

And Startin' Monday

I'll be playin' it straight,

Choosing only the good things

To put on my plate

Reversing the engine,

Rewinding the tape

Startin' Monday

I'm well aware of the fact

I've got only a weekend

To get all my ducks in a row

I'll be workin' real hard

To get out of my system

A few wild oats left to sow

But Startin' Monday

There'll be no debate

I'll start readin' my Bible,

Rise early, work late,

Recycle, stay sober,

Choose love over hate

Startin' Monday

Startin' Monday

Fix all my mistakes

Startin' Monday
