 "These Days Are All Mine"

Lyrics and video by Bud Meyers © 2009
Music written and performed by Brian Eldredge of Travelin' Band - formerly of Creagles

My little brick room is six feet by nine
It might not be much but it's all mine
The sink in the corner, the concrete floor
A bed to the side and the solid steel door
A small piece of glass lets my only light in
I count all the bricks - I'll start over again
My meals are delivered just three times a day
The food's not so good but I don't have to pay

There's no clock on the wall but I can still keep time
Lines on the wall, these days are all mine

When I get my mail, it's three times a week
My lawyers they might write for a plea that they seek
An innocent man would never be here
'Cause he would most likely be home drinking a beer
What about me, just what did I do
You killed my heart and I only killed you
I need to be free and out of this jail
I have to escape 'cause it's too late for bail

There's no clock on the wall but I can still keep time
Another line on the wall, these days are all mine

(bye-bye)
(instrumental)

My little brick room is six foot by nine
It might not be much but it's all mine
A sink in the corner and a concrete floor
A bed to the side and a solid steel door
A small piece of glass lets my only light in
I count all the bricks then start over again
You killed my heart, what did I do
You killed my heart but I only killed you

There's no clock on the wall but I can still keep time
Draw another line on the wall, these days are all mine...
There's no clock on the wall but I can still keep time
Draw another line on the wall, I'm going to lose my mind.
