The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band

These Days

Well, I've been out walking,

And I don't do too much talking these days...

These days...

These days, I seem to think a lot

About the things that I forgot to do

And all the times I've had the chance to...

Well, I've stopped my rambling,

And I don't do too much gambling these days...

These days...

These days I sit on the corner stones

And count the time in quarter tones to ten.

Oh, will I see that highway?

Well, I had a lover,

And I don't think I'd risk another, these days...

These days...

And if I seem to be afraid

To live the life that I have made in song,

Well, it's just 'cause I've been moving too long.

Well, I've stopped my dreaming,

And I don't do too much scheming these days...

These days...

These days I sit on the corner stones

And count the time in quarter tones to ten, my friend.

Don't confront me with my failures.

I have not forgotten them.
