Well I fly off the handle 
A little too quick 
Guess you could call me a nervous man 
For the last week or two 

It don't take too much 
To make me want to raise my hand 
Well it's one of those days 
When you'd rather not be 

So low down and dirty 
Your luck's out to sea 
Well I fly off the handle 
A little too fast 

You know friends think I look like an angry man 
Like bad memory turned up again 
I find it hard not to raise my hand 
Well it's one of those towns 

Where you'd rather not stay 
Come back and see it 
Some other day 
Well it's one of those nights 

When you know you're alone 
Feeling half crazy 
Just body and soul 
Well my cat won't scratch 

Or show its claws 
It just prowls around the house all day 
For the last night or two 
I can't eat or drink 

I think I'm gonna fade away 
Well it's one of those days 
When you'd rather not be 
So low down and lonesome
