Lyrics : Better Days (Live at the Brendan Byrne Arena, East Rutherford, NJ - 06/24/93)

Well my soul checked out missing as I sat listening to the hours and minutes ticking away
Yeah just sitting around waiting for my life to begin while it was all just slipping away
And I'm tired of waiting for tomorrow to come or that train to come roaring 'round the bend
I got a new suit of clothes and a pretty red rose and a woman I can call my friend

These are better days, baby
Yeah there's better days shining through
These are better days, baby
Better days with a girl like you

Well I took a p*ss at fortune's sweet kiss, it's like еating caviar and dirt
It's a sad funny ending to find yourself pretеnding a rich man in a poor man's shirt
Now my a** was dragging when from a pa**ing gypsy wagon, your heart like a diamond shone
Tonight I'm lying in your arms carving lucky charms yeah out of these hard luck bones

These are better days, baby
These are better days, it's true
These are better days, baby
There's better days shining through

Now a life of leisure and a pirate's treasure don't make much for tragedy
It's a sad man my friend who's living in his own skin and can't stand the company
Every fool's got a reason to feeling sorry for himself and turning his heart to stone
Tonight this fool's halfway to heaven and just a mile outta hell and I feel like I'm coming home

These are better days, baby
There's better days shining through
These are better days, baby
Better days with a girl like you
These are better days, baby
These are better days, it's true
These are better days, baby
Better days are shining through

These are better days, baby
Ah better days, it's true
These are better days, baby
Better days are shining through

These are better days, baby
Ah better days, it's true
These are better days, baby
Better days are shining through

These are better days
These are better days
Better days are shining through
These are better days
These are better days
