Days Go By Lyrics by J. J. Cale

Days Go By Lyrics

    When you light that funny cigarette
    Would you pass it back to me
    I'm feeling a little down and out
    And it'll keep me company
    I'm just a long lost sinner
    Living life here on the line
    I'll give it right back to you
    I know it's not really mine
    Now don't put it out, not right yet
    It's burning pretty good
    Maybe i'll have one more toke
    You think i should
    Oo-oo, days go by
    I just sit around and get real high
    Oo-oo, what a glow
    I just hang out, they come and go
    Hey, the walls are starting to move
    The floor is way down there
    What a buzz it is
    There's electricity in the air
    Boy, i'm feeling really gone
    I'm feeling really cool
    I think i'll have another one
    I'm just another fool
    You know they say it's illegal
    But what isn't these days
    No matter what you do
    There'll be somebody on your case
    Oo-oo, days go by
    It just seems like i sit around and get high
    Oo-oo, shame on me
    They're going to put me in a penitentiary
    I must not be together
    Look at the shape i'm in
    I just know people are saying
    "he's looking awful thin"
    I guess i can count my blessings
    Though i've always been this way
    I guess i'll quit tomorrow
    Maybe another day
    Oo-oo, days go by
    I guess i'll sit around and get real high
    You know time has no absolute
    It's a just seems like it's spent
    Everything has a tendency to be so warped and bent
    While looking here and there
    I'm surprised to see
    Everybody's gone here
    Everybody's gone but me
    Oo-oo, days go by
    I just sit around and get real high
    Oo-oo, what a glow
    I just hang out, they come and go
