Long, Long Day

.

It's been a long, long day

I got some run-down shoes

Ain't got no place to stay

But any old place will be okay

It's been a long, long day

.

I sure been on this road

Done nearly fourteen years

Can't say my name's well known

You don't see my face in Rolling Stone

But I sure been on this road

.

Slow motion

Half a dollar bill

Jukebox in the corner

Shooting to kill

And it's been a...

.

It's been a long, long day

I sure could use a friend

Don't know what else to say

I hate to abuse an old cliché

But it's been a long, long day

Its been a long, long day
