came home today with a tear in my eye
wishin' I'd punched that old clock my last time
boy I sure hate, to let it get me down this way
but this old life just ain't a game that I play
it's days like these, when I've got it all wrong
working for what, til the feeling's all gone
it ain't worth the fight, I know that much is true
but it's days like these I don't know what to do
it's days like these I don't know what to do
I've never been lost, but I've never been found
doing what they say, with both feet on the ground
well, God only knows what I may have store
but I know that there's got, there must be something more
it's days like these, when I've got it all wrong
working for what, til the feeling's all gone
it ain't worth the fight, I know that much is true
but it's days like these I don't know what to do
it's days like these I don't know what to do
day has run long, I'm tired and spent
can't tell if this life is the one that I'm meant
tried to find peace on a street headin' south
when I get there I'll see what this pain's all about
it's days like these, when I've got it all wrong
working for what, til the feeling's all gone
it ain't worth the fight, I know that much is true
but it's days like these I don't know what to do
it's days like these I don't know what to do
