Cloudy Day - Tom T. Hall

I never did like that apartment it was not a place I like to be In summertime the place was hot in wintertime I’d sit around and freeze

I never did like that apartment seems to me it always smell like food

People down the hall complained because I liked to pick and sing

And anyway the rent was overdue

Cloudy day this is my cloudy day

One for you and one for him one for her and one for them

This looks like a cloudy day for me

I’ve forgot the number of the Interstate that brought me to this town

I’ve been here for seven months and still I do not know my way around

Well I’d like to find a quiet place and trouble is I don’t know where it’s at I don’t know which way is best but I think I’ll be headin' west

So I’ll be walkin' where the land is flat

Cloudy day this is my cloudy day…

I’ve know people higher up the ladder who can always pick and choose

Anything they want to be or anyplace they go to just can’t lose

It doesn’t matter who you are we all must have a cloudy day some time

Days that we can’t seem to win days that we ain’t got a friend

We all have days and I guess this is mine

Cloudy day this is my cloudy day…

One for you and one for him one for her and one for them

This looks like a cloudy day for me
