Lady Madonna, children at your feet
Wonder how you manage to make ends meet
Who finds the money? When you pay the rent?
Did you think that money was Heaven sent?

Friday night arrives without a suitcase
Sunday morning creep in like a nun
Monday's child has learned to tie his bootlace
See how they run singing



Lady Madonna, lying on your bed
Listen to the music running through your head,
around your head.

Tuesday afternoon is never ending
Wednesday morning papers didn't come
Thursday night you stockings needed mending
See how they run singing

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

how you manage to make ends meet
how you manage to make ends meet

Lady Madonna
