These Days

Grey skies in my mind Drunk on the sunshine Ain't no debating the truth Out walking alleys Peaks and the valleys Pacing the halls of my youth Double back in your Cadillac But the monkey on your back's Bringing you down Them fur coat blues Same old shoes Heavy hammer dues Hanging around I'm getting down these days I heard a story A man in his glory Digging a line in the sand Dance with the devil But you can't keep it level And the grains start to slip through your hand What a sight to see Wild menagerie One two three all coming down Though I try To toe that line I got a heavy mind hanging around I'm getting down these days
