WEDNESDAY'S CHILD
(Gene Malone / Bob Klimes)


Jody Miller - 1963



Well I was born 'round midnight 
So no one knows for sure
If I belong to Wednesday 
Or if I'm Thursday's child

But one thing is for certain 
I've got a long, long way to go
And everywhere I get to 
I find myself more woe

I'm Wednesday's child and Thursdays' child
A long, long way to go
And everywhere I get to
I find myself more woe

(Instrumental Break)

Sorrow, sorrow, sorrow 
Comes to Wednesday's child
I even love in sorrow 
For I love Friday's child

Yes, Friday's child is giving 
He's got a lot of love to give
But all the love he has to give 
He gave to Monday's child

For Monday's child is fair of face 
More beautiful than me
She's got the love I long for
But how else can it be

I'm Wednesday's child and Thursday's child
A long, long way to go
And everywhere I get to
I find myself more woe
I find myself more woe
