 Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!

Checking out of the Wayside Motel down on Marly Street
I hand my key to the clerk in the front, he says, “Sir, how was your stay?”
Now he couldn’t be more than 12 years old, working for a dollar
So, I look into the young boy’s eyes and lie, “Thanks, it was really good
If you don’t mind me asking, say, aren’t you supposed to be in school?”
He looked up, tried to give me a smile, and said, “My mama’s been really ill
And I’ve gotta run this place for us to make ends meet”
I tossed the sack with my torn-up shirt over my shoulder, said, “Keep the change”
He watched me leave
Well, I’ve seen better days in my dreams
And I’ve been searchin’ for a breeze
But there’s some people I know
I can’t pretend that they don’t
Got more problems of their own
I’ve gotta get back on the horse and try again
I’ve seen better days in my dreams, but I can’t stop living
Walking down in my worn-out shoes towards a gas station miles away
Looking forward to a nice, cold drink, I’ve got a long, long journey ahead
I can see smoke and flames in the distance, sirens getting louder
And the sound of an old man weeping, watching his life’s work burn to bits
His wife sheds a tear
Well, I’ve seen better days in my dreams
And I’ve been searchin’ for a breeze
But there’s some people I know
I can’t pretend that they don’t
Got more problems of their own
I’ve gotta get back on the horse and try again
I’ve seen better days in my dreams, but I won’t stop living
I’m gonna pick myself up, I’m gonna tell all the world
No matter what happens, I’ll be there for you
I’ve seen better days in my dreams
And I’ve been searchin’ for a breeze
There’s some people I know
I can’t pretend that they don’t
Got more problems of their own
I’ve gotta get back on the horse and try again
I’ve seen better days in my dreams
