Mondays child is fair of face
as ev'rybody knows;
Tuesdays child is full of grace
so the old ryhme goes,
The other weekdays bring forth kids
all right in their own way.
But the child you see
that appeals to me
came on the Sabbath Day.

The child that's born on Sunday
has the charms of all the rest.
My girl was born
on a Sabbath morn
that's why I like her best.
I'm sure no other baby
could be naughtily nice
without being a bit too wild
and tho' I'm still a laddy
she always calls me "Daddy"
she's my Sunday's child.

The child that's born on Sunday
has the charms of all the rest.
My girl was born
on a Sabbath morn
that's why I like her best.
I'm sure no other baby
could be naughtily nice
without being a bit too wild
and tho' I'm still a laddy
she always calls me "Daddy"
she's my Sunday's child.

Little ones that first appear
upon the Sabbath Day
will have good luck thru the year
no bad luck they say
That's why the happy Sunday girl
I always did prefer
For she is blest
by the day of rest
and my love rests with her.

The child that's born on Sunday
has the charms of all the rest.
My girl was born
on a Sabbath morn
that's why I like her best.
I'm sure no other baby
could be naughtily nice
without being a bit too wild
and tho' I'm still a laddy
she always calls me "Daddy"
she's my Sunday's child.

The child that's born on Sunday
has the charms of all the rest.
My girl was born
on a Sabbath morn
that's why I like her best.
I'm sure no other baby
could be naughtily nice
without being a bit too wild
and tho' I'm still a laddy
she always calls me "Daddy"
she's my Sunday's child.
