Some days I just wanna cry   Oooo, but the days gone by   On the corner of Fifth Stree and Vine   Oooo, with a bottle of wine   The lights turn to red and I hustle for my bread   Walking down between the cars with my sign   And most of them ignore me    But sometimes I can score me a find      Took a wife back in 1974    Oooo, I never felt so sure   On that day for her love I would die   Oooo, but the days go by      We moved in together   Some days were better    But I got this little problem with my mind   Then we lost a baby    And I spent all my time getting high      Chicago was cold and last spring   Ooooh, went upon that rain       Groundhound bus stop on I-95   They're gonna let me stay the night   And I'll move on with the morning light   Oooo, watch the days go by      Some dreams still want me   Some memories still haunt me    And Angels will hide in the night   The taillights are fading    But her face is there waiting in my mind       Some days you find love if you try   Oooo, but the days go by   Oooo, but the days go by
