Off The Handle Lyrics - Top Priority - Rory Gallagher

Well, I fly off the handle 

A little too quick 

Guess you could call me a nervous man 

For the last week or two 

It don't take too much 

To make me wanna raise my hand 

Well, it's one of those days 

When you'd rather not be 

So low down and dirty 

Your luck's out to sea 

Well, I fly off the handle 

A little too fast 

You know friends 

Think I look like an angry man 

Like bad memory turned up again 

I find it hard not to raise my hand 

Well, it's one of those towns 

Where you'd rather not stay 

Come back and see it 

Some other day 

Well, it's one of those nights 

When you know you're alone 

Feeling half crazy 

Just body and soul 

Well, my cat won't scratch 

Or show its claws 

It just prowls 

Around the house all day 

For the last night or two 

I can't eat or drink 

I think I'm gonna fade away 

Well, it's one of those days 

When you'd rather not be 

So low down and lonesome 

Your luck's out to sea
