john hiatt - one of them damn days lyrics
it was monday or tuesday
or one of them d-mn days
i was staring backwards from the sun
through an unrelenting haze
i was shaking, reaching for my cup
trying to stir my life around
’cause i thought i saw my baby
on the other side of town
they were just ten and eleven
and almost seventeen
she was barely thirty-five herself
when i turned drunk and mean
someone said they seen ’em back
why would they come around
but i thought i saw my baby
on the other side of town
now the drunkard, he will go to lengths
to justify his state
but the truth is even one’s too much
when a hundred will not sate
like a wrecking ball slung through the lives
of all to whom he’s bound
well, i thought i saw my baby
on the other side of town
well, i thought if i could make amends
and somehow get in touch
but then i had to take a drink
and it was all too much
i drank the whole rest of the day
i drank that bottle down
’cause i thought i saw my baby
on the other side of town
it was monday or tuesday
or one of them d-mn days
they keep comin’ ever after
nothing changes, nothing stays
just a flickering in black and white
an image with no sound
and i think i see my baby
on the other side of town
