Old Days - John Hiatt[00:00:00]

I was sittin' in a dressing room[00:00:18]

With brownie mcghee[00:00:20]

He was drinkin' that milk[00:00:22]

With that dewar's whiskey[00:00:25]

Said john[00:00:26]

There's nothin'[00:00:27]

Written anywhere[00:00:27]

Suggests the blues[00:00:29]

Will set you free[00:00:30]

Old days[00:00:31]

Are comin' back to me[00:00:32]

I was ridin'[00:00:35]

In the back seat[00:00:36]

With sonny terry[00:00:37]

Little harmonica player[00:00:39]

Used to drive him around[00:00:40]

I think his name was harry[00:00:42]

Tried to get him to eat tofu[00:00:44]

Raw vegetables nuts[00:00:45]

And berries[00:00:47]

But sonny[00:00:48]

Wasn't havin' any of it[00:00:49]

He let me share a room with 'em[00:00:52]

For a couple of weeks[00:00:55]

Sonny slept with his good eye[00:00:56]

Open staring out[00:00:58]

From under the sheets[00:00:59]

I was young and uncomfortable[00:01:01]

I don't mind tellin' ya[00:01:03]

Kinda gave me the creeps[00:01:04]

Old days[00:01:05]

Are comin' back to me[00:01:06]

Old days[00:01:10]

Are comin' back to me[00:01:11]

Don't know what was[00:01:14]

So good about 'em[00:01:15]

I played practically free[00:01:16]

I had nothin'[00:01:18]

To live up to[00:01:19]

Everywhere to be[00:01:21]

Old days[00:01:22]

Are comin' back to me[00:01:23]

On some dates[00:01:27]

With mose allison[00:01:28]

Somewhere out in the midwest[00:01:29]

Said some of my lyrics[00:01:31]

Reminded him[00:01:32]

Of the poet kenneth patchen[00:01:32]

I took it as a compliment[00:01:33]

He was referring to the line[00:01:36]

About wearin' neon signs[00:01:37]

On your wounds[00:01:38]

Later on[00:01:39]

I knew what he meant[00:01:39]

Old days[00:01:40]

Are comin' back to me[00:01:41]

On a date[00:01:44]

With john lee hooker[00:01:45]

At a packed[00:01:46]

Joint up in washington[00:01:47]

He came in[00:01:49]

With a gorgeous woman[00:01:49]

On each arm[00:01:50]

As I was singing my song[00:01:51]

Walked 'em right up[00:01:53]

And sat 'em[00:01:54]

On the edge of the stage[00:01:55]

As I went singing along[00:01:56]

And that's called[00:01:57]

Evenin' son[00:01:58]

I'm the headliner[00:01:59]

Old days[00:02:02]

Are comin' back to me[00:02:03]

I don't know what was[00:02:06]

So great about 'em[00:02:07]

I played practically free[00:02:08]

But I had nothing[00:02:10]

To live up to[00:02:11]

And everywhere to be[00:02:13]

Old days[00:02:14]

Are comin' back to me[00:02:15]

Played a gig[00:02:36]

With john hammond jr[00:02:36]

Up in vancouver bc[00:02:38]

Exotic dancer came[00:02:40]

In my dressing room[00:02:41]

Started dancing exotically[00:02:42]

They were smoking something[00:02:44]

In the audience that night[00:02:45]

Smelled exactly like cat pee[00:02:46]

Old days are comin' back to me[00:02:49]

Opened up a gig[00:02:54]

For gatemouth brown[00:02:55]

Down in baton rouge[00:02:55]

He was playing[00:02:57]

That hillbilly jazz[00:02:58]

Cajun country[00:02:59]

Zydeco and blues[00:03:00]

Throwin' it[00:03:02]

Out past the walls[00:03:03]

Like some kind[00:03:04]

Of musical centrifuge[00:03:05]

Old days[00:03:06]

Are comin' back to me[00:03:07]

Old days[00:03:11]

Are comin' back to me[00:03:12]

I don't know what was[00:03:15]

So good about 'em[00:03:15]

I played practically free[00:03:17]

But I had nothin'[00:03:19]

To live up to[00:03:20]

Everywhere to be[00:03:21]

Old days[00:03:23]

Are comin' back to me[00:03:24]

Old days[00:03:28]

Are comin' back to me[00:03:29]

I don't know what was[00:03:31]

So great about 'em[00:03:32]

I played practically free[00:03:34]

But I had nothin'[00:03:36]

To live up to[00:03:37]

Everywhere to be[00:03:38]

Old days[00:03:40]

Are comin' back to me[00:03:41]

Old days[00:03:45]

Are comin' back to me[00:03:46]
