Ain't My Day - Wall Of Voodoo

Chrokee sat on the same barstool

Everyday 'til his wife dragged him back

Drinking and talking about the old days

«They don’t make them anymore like that.»

I did extra work in the movies for so long

That starring role never camethrough…

Horse opera stories were my specialty

I remember when I met the Duke

Oh- it ain’t my day…

Oh- it ain’t my day…

Now I’m sixty years old

And I sit by the phone

Every night by the light of the soaps

I’ll bet my last dollar

That Jock and his sons never once

Burned their hands on a rope…

Oh- it ain’t my day…

Oh- it ain’t my day…

And I’m trying to, dying to

Sit back and see my old face

Oh- it ain’t my day…

Oh- it ain’t my day…
