Almost Every Circumstance

Seven days are in the week in almost every circumstance
And there’s four seasons in the year, or so we learn at school;
Ah, but never count your chickens when you’re dealing with the women
For many’s the wise man fell asleep and wakened up a fool
The first time I met my love was on a Monday morning
And the second time I saw her was a Tuesday afternoon;
When she kissed me on a Wednesday, I couldn’t wait for Thursday
But I can tell you now, my boys, that Thursday never came
Seven days are in the week in almost every circumstance
And there’s four seasons in the year, or so we learn at school;
Ah, but never count your chickens when you’re dealing with the women
For many’s the wise man fell asleep and wakened up a fool
My love, she took the wintertime and turned it into springtime
I never thought that love could change the world so much before;
I gave my heart and in return she promised me the summertime
But I can tell you now, my boys, that summer never came
Seven days are in the week in almost every circumstance
And there’s four seasons in the year, or so we learn at school;
Ah, but never count your chickens when you’re dealing with the women
For many’s the wise man fell asleep and wakened up a fool
