Lady Madonna Lyrics

Helen Merrill Lady Madonna

Lady Madonna, children at your feet
Wonders how you manage to make ends meet
Who finds the money when you pay the rent
Did you know that money was heaven sent?

Friday night arrives without a suitcase
Sunday morning creeping like a nun
Monday's child has learned to tie his bootlace
(see how they'll run!)

Lady Madonna, baby at your breast
Wonders how you manage to feed the rest, ooh
Ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba
Ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba
Ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba
See how they'll run!

Lady Madonna, lying on the bed
Listen to the music playing in your head, ooh-oh-oh..

Tuesday afternoon is never ending
Wedn'sday morning papers didn't come
Thursday night your stockings needed mending
See how they'll run!

Lady Madonna, children at your feet
Wonders how you manage to make ends meet

Hey! Hey!
Hey! Hey!
