Lyrics

Well, it's day blues Sunlight's shinin' on some bad news Makes it feel like everything you do is gonna lose Sunlight frownin' down on me, cause you didn't sleep Sunlight frownin' down on me When my nights get so bad That I'm hangin' out sad And stay up the long hours of the mornin' When the day folks arise With the sleep in their eyes To go follow the tracks they've been born in That's the day blues Stayin' awake a little too long Now I'm sittin' in the middle of a blue song Same old right back thinkin' bout you, son Sunlight frownin' down on me When the dawn comes to leave Why does light have to be Like the mirror that's showin' I'm older? And the sun don't feel good And I ask how it could When it feels like a crow on my shoulder That's the day blues Sunlight's shinin' on some bad news Makes it feel like everything you do is gonna lose Sunlight frownin' down on me, cause you didn't sleep Sunlight frownin' down on me
