Monday morning, coffee's black Ticker tape ain't cuttin' me no slack Saw a little green, a hopeful light Figured I'd hold on with all my might But by Tuesday, she was turning red All those pretty little promises were dead Just a slow bleed, a painful drip With a trembling hand and a bitten lip The market's a mean old lover, yes it's true One day she's sweet, the next she's leaving you
Gives you a diamond, then she steals your shoes I got the Wall Street, weekly Friday blues Yeah, the Wall Street, weekly Friday blues Wednesday came, a rumor spread Some new tech stock went to my head Felt that old familiar, hopeful rush Turned my careful planning into dust Thursday morning, I was king of the world Watched my fortune beautifully unfurled Then the closing bell, a sudden dive
Barely made it out of there alive The market's a mean old lover, yes it's true One day she's sweet, the next she's leaving you Gives you a diamond, then she steals your shoes I got the Wall Street, weekly Friday blues Yeah, the Wall Street, weekly Friday blues Thirty years I've watched this screen Flippin' back and forth from red to green I've seen the crashes, seen the climbs Lived a thousand lives and died a thousand times
And every Friday, it's the same old song Wonderin' where the hell it all went wrong Or thanking heaven for a miracle I know Will be gone by Monday's opening glow The market's a mean old lover, yes it's true One day she's sweet, the next she's leaving you Gives you a diamond, then she steals your shoes I got the Wall Street, weekly Friday blues Yeah, the Wall Street, weekly Friday blues
