Well my soul checked out missing as I sat listening
To the hours and minutes tickin´ away
Yeah, just sittin´ around waitin´ for my life to begin
While it was all just slippin´ away.
I´m tired of waitin´ for tomorrow to come
Or that train to come roarin´ ´round the bend
I got a new suit of clothes a pretty red rose
And a woman I can call my friend
These are better days baby
Yeah there´s better days shining through
These are better days baby
Better days with a girl like you
Well I took a piss at fortune´s sweet kiss
It´s like eatin´ caviar and dirt
It´s a sad funny ending to find yourself pretending
A rich man in a poor man´s shirt
Now my ass was draggin´ when from a passin´ gypsy wagon
Your heart like a diamond shone
Tonight I´m layin´ in your arms carvin´ lucky charms
Out of these heard luck bones
These are better days baby
These are better days it´s true
These are better days
There´s better days shining through
Now a life of leisure and a pirate´s treasure
Don´t make much for tragedy
But it´s a sad man my friend who´s livin´ in his own skin
And can´t stand the company
Every fool´s got a reason to feelin´ sorry for himself
And turn his heart to stone
Tonight this fool´s halfway to heaven and just a mile outta hell
And I feel like I´m comin´ home
These are better days baby
There´s better days shining through
These are better days
Better days with a girl like you
These are better days baby
These are better days it´s true
These are better days
Better days are shining through
