Monday Morning Secretary Lyrics - The Statler Brothers

She leaves home at eight, a little bit late 

A little bit tired of it all, she unlocks the doors 

And does so much more than what she gets credit for 

She opens the mail straightens up without fail 

Last Friday evening's mess, she makes brand new coffee 

Though her head's hurtin' awfully, by nine she's looking her best 

And Monday comes dawning the world wakes up yawning 

And Friday seems so far away 

But there bright and early Monday morning secretary 

You sure do look pretty today, at ten there's a break 

She don't always take, just time for a powder and smoke 

A salesman comes in, looks her over end to end 

And tells her a new dirty joke, she laughs off his pass 

Like she's done in the past, she knows all those lines so well 

Then at five she goes home to her cat and two rooms 

And cries 'cause she's lonely as hell
