MOMA SAID THERE’D BE DAYS LIKE THESE
                                                                                                          By Robin Lee Sinclair

CHORUS:
MOMA SAID THERE’D BE DAYS LIKE THIS, DAYS LIKE THIS, MOMA SAID
MOMA SAID THERE’D BE DAYS LIKE THIS WHEN I SHOULDA JUST STAYED IN BED

VERSE:
THE DAY BEGAN WHEN THE SUN WOULDN’T SHINE
AND THE RAIN CAME POURIN’ DOWN
THE CAR WOULDN’T START AND I HAD TO GET TO WORK,
SO I HITCHED ME A RIDE TO TOWN
WE HAD A FLAT AND I SAID THAT’S THAT,
NOW I’M GONA BE LATE FOR SURE
HE SAID, SON DON’T YA SWEAT IT, THEDRE’S A SPARE IN THE BAK,
AND HE PUSHED ME RIGHT OUT O’ THE DOOR

CHORUS:  (AS ABOVE) & INSTRUMENTAL

VERSE:
I FINALLY GOT TO WORK AND THE BOSS YELLED HEY!
YOU KNOW THAT YOU’RE AN HOUR LATE
I WAS DRENCHED TO THE BONE AND COMIN’ DOWN WITH A COLD;
I SAID, BOSS WON’T YA GIVE ME A BREAK
WHEN I TOLD WHAT’D HAPPENED HE JUST SNEERED
AND SAID, DON’T EXPECT ME TO BUY THAT CRAP!
SO I SNEEZED AND COUGHED:  HE SAID, TAKE THE DAY OFF,
AND DON’T YA BOTHER COMIN’ BACK

CHORUS:   (AS ABOVE) & INSTRUMENTAL

VERSE:
WHEN I GOT BACK HOME THERE WAS A CALL FROM MY EX;
SHE SAID, YOU’D BETTER COME UP WITH SOME CASH
I SAID, I JUST GOT FIRED, AND I’M DOWN WITH THE FLU;
WON’T YOU PLEASE GET OFF O’ MY BACK
HEARD HER SAY, THIS JUST AIN’T YOUR DAY,
YOU’RE A WHOLE MONTH BEHIND WITH THE BREAD
I HUNG UP THE PHONE, AND I STARTED TO MOAN,
THINKIN’ MAYBE I’D BE BETTER OFF DEAD

CHORUS:  (AS ABOVE) X’S 2 & INSTRUMENTAL TO FACE
