Drowning In The Days

(Hitchhike to Rhome lyrics. Minor variations
found on The Old 97's cassette)

I've been reading books when no one's looking,
I've been listening to the sirens in the night.
Robert says I'm going straight to hell yeah,
If I hang around here I just might.

And I'd like to take some medicine,
I'd like to drink some wine,
I'd like to wake up numb like all my friends.

There's a road to where I came from,
It gets longer all the time,
There's a road to where I'm going it never ends.
And my moon - it always it always wanes,
And my guitar always plays...

(Chorus)
Drowning in the days, uh oh, uh oh, uh oh
Drowning in the days, uh oh, uh oh, uh oh
Drowning in the days, uh oh, uh oh, uh oh
Drowning in the days, uh oh, uh oh, uh oh

I've been writing fairy tales and postcards,
Writing down the story of my life.
Cari says I make everything so hard,
Cari says I'm difficult - she's right.

And I'd like to take some medicine,
I'd like to take you home,
I'd like to get that woman off my mind.

Well I like your pouty lips,
I like your pretty little bones,
But I'm sleeping with the porcelain tonight.

And my cloud - it always rains,
Ken's feedback always fades...

(Repeat Chorus)

Mirror lyrics:

(Repeat Chorus)

Ken's feedback always fades...
And my cloud - it always rains,

But I'm sleeping with the porcelain tonight.
I like your pretty little bones,
Well I like your pouty lips,

I'd like to get that woman off my mind.
I'd like to take you home,
And I'd like to take some medicine,

Cari says I'm difficult - she's right.
Cari says I make everything so hard,
Writing down the story of my life.
I've been writing fairy tales and postcards,

Drowning in the days, uh oh, uh oh, uh oh
Drowning in the days, uh oh, uh oh, uh oh
Drowning in the days, uh oh, uh oh, uh oh
Drowning in the days, uh oh, uh oh, uh oh
(Chorus)

And my guitar always plays...
And my moon - it always it always wanes,
There's a road to where I'm going it never ends.
It gets longer all the time,
There's a road to where I came from,

I'd like to wake up numb like all my friends.
I'd like to drink some wine,
And I'd like to take some medicine,

If I hang around here I just might.
Robert says I'm going straight to hell yeah,
I've been listening to the sirens in the night.
I've been reading books when no one's looking,
