Lyrics:

'Twas on a Monday morning 
When I beheld my darling, 
She looked so neat and charming 
In ev'ry high degree. 
She looked so neat and nimble, O, 
A-washing of her linen, O, 
Dashing away with the smoothing iron, 
Dashing away with the smoothing iron, 
She stole my heart away. 

'Twas on a Tuesday morning 
When I beheld my darling, 
She looked so neat and charming 
In ev'ry high degree. 
She looked so neat and nimble, O, 
A-hanging out her linen, O, 
Dashing away with the smoothing iron, 
Dashing away with the smoothing iron, 
She stole my heart away. 

'Twas on a Wednesday morning... 
When I beheld my darling,
She looked so neat and charming 
In ev'ry high degree. 
She looked so neat and nimble, O, 
A-starching of her linen, O, 
Dashing away with the smoothing iron, 
Dashing away with the smoothing iron, 
She stole my heart away. 

'Twas on a Thursday morning 
When I beheld my darling, 
She looked so neat and charming 
In ev'ry high degree. 
She looked so neat and nimble, O, 
A-ironing of her linen, O, 
Dashing away with the smoothing iron, 
Dashing away with the smoothing iron, 
She stole my heart away. 

'Twas on a Friday morning 
When I beheld my darling, 
She looked so neat and charming 
In ev'ry high degree. 
She looked so neat and nimble, O, 
A-folding  out her linen, O, 
Dashing away with the smoothing iron, 
Dashing away with the smoothing iron, 
She stole my heart away. 

'Twas on a Saturday morning 
When I beheld my darling, 
She looked so neat and charming 
In ev'ry high degree. 
She looked so neat and nimble, O, 
A-airing out her linen, O, 
Dashing away with the smoothing iron, 
Dashing away with the smoothing iron, 
She stole my heart away. 

'Twas on a Sunday morning 
When I beheld my darling, 
She looked so neat and charming 
In ev'ry high degree. 
She looked so neat and nimble, O, 
A-wearing out her linen, O, 
Dashing away with the smoothing iron, 
Dashing away with the smoothing iron, 
She stole my heart away.
