One Of Them Damn Days - John Hiatt

It was Monday or Tuesday

Or one of them damn 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 damn 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
