About Stormy Monday. "Call It Stormy Monday (But Tuesday Is Just as Bad)" (commonly referred to as "Stormy Monday") is a song written and recorded by American blues electric guitar pioneer T-Bone Walker. It is a slow twelve-bar blues performed in the West Coast blues-style that features Walker's smooth, plaintive vocal and distinctive guitar work.
The lyrics chronicle the feelings of lost love through the days of week, starting on Monday: "They call it stormy Monday, but Tuesday's just as bad". The mood improves by Friday, when "the eagle flies", a metaphor for payday, which allows for carousing on Saturday. [13]

T-Bone Walker - Stormy Monday Lyrics. Artist: T-Bone Walker. Album: Van Morrison's Jukebox
Call it stormy Monday, and, baby, Tuesday's just as bad. Wednesday's worse, Thursday's oh so sad. The eagle flies on Friday, and Saturday I go out to play. Well the eagle flies on Friday, and Saturday I go out to play. Sunday I go to church, I kneel down and pray.
