Well, something’s in the air
Burning hot and sweet
There’s a man over there
Sittin’ in the street

I’m over here
With a rusted forty-four
Sittin’ on the steps
Of your back door
It’s one of those days

Well, the only thing that moves
Is the laundry on the line
And a dusty dog that bites
Just to kill the time

If you should find
You’ve rolled into this town
Honey, do yourself a favor
And roll straight back out
It’s one of those towns

Well, the man I’m lovin’
He sure do treat me mean
He’s the meanest man
I most ever seen
I go around
Tryin’ to make amends
He goes to town
And screws it up again
Well, he’s one of those men

Well, something’s in the air
Burning hot and sweet
There’s a man over there
Sittin’ in the street

I’m over here
With a rusted forty-four
Sittin’ on the steps
Of your back door
It’s one of those days
Yeah it’s one of those days
