    Gmünd is a town in the northwestern Waldviertel region of Lower Austria and the capital of the Gmünd district. The municipality consists of the Katastralgemeinden Böhmzeil, Breitensee, Eibenstein, Gmünd and Grillenstein. Situated on the Lainsitz (Lužnice) river where it forms the border with České Velenice in the Czech Republic, it is an important road and railway crossing point, next to the Blockheide protected area.

    The development of the town, first mentioned in a 1208 deed, was decisively pushed by the inauguration of the Emperor Franz Joseph Railway from Vienna to Prague in 1869. By the 1919 Treaty of Saint-Germain its northern part with the main station was awarded to Czechoslovakia, forming the new town of Velenice.

    Come Monday

    by: Jimmy Buffett

    Headin' up to San Francisco
    For the Labor Day week-end show
    I've got my hush-puppies on
    I guess I never was meant for glitter rock and roll
    And honey I didn't know
    That I'd be missin' you so
    Chorus:
    Come Monday, it'll be all right
    Come Monday, I'll be holdin' you tight
    I spent four lonely days in a brown L. A. haze
    And I just want you back by my side
    Yes, it's been quite a summer
    Rent-a-cars and west-bound trains
    And now you're off on vacation
    Somethin' you tried to explain
    And darlin', it's I love you so
    That's the reason I just let you go
    Chorus:
    Come Monday, it'll be all right
    Come Monday, I'll be holdin' you tight
    I spent four lonely days in a brown L. A. haze
    And I just want you back by my side
    I can't help it honey
    You're that much a part of me now
    Remember that night in Montana
    When we said there'd be no room for doubt
    I hope you're enjoyin' the scen'ry
    I know that it's pretty up there
    We can go hikin' on Tuesday
    With you I'd walk anywhere
    California has worn me quite thin
    I just can't wait to see you again
    Chorus:
    Come Monday, it'll be all right
    Come Monday, I'll be holdin' you tight
    I spent four lonely days in a brown L. A. haze
