Day drinkin' just stinkin' out loud Sundown's come down along with that nighttime crowd Bookends good friends thoughts of the past Your time is my time as long as it last I felt too good for too long to feel as blue as I do Chain smokin' all jokin' aside Wishin' and waitin' and hesitatin' tryin' to take it all in stride Night flight back home everything's changed All night tonight my thoughts rearranged I felt too good for too long to feel as blue as I do Night hawkin' talkin' out of my head Hometown show down give me the lowdown But please don't tell me what you think I said Give me the feeling I'm on the right track Catch me a night train I ain't comin' back I felt too good for too long to feel as blue as I do I felt too good for too long to feel as blue as I do
