A Day in the Sun
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Everything's working out fine
You've got all the things you want and I've got mine
No more struggle and strife
Kickin' back and diggin'...It's a wonderful life
And then you awoke
To start the day out laughing
It's some kind of a joke
Everybody's waiting for a day in the sun
Everybody's working hard to have some fun
First you want a million then a million and one
Everybody's waiting for a day in the sun
City girls and small town boys
Big time spenders with expensive toys
Pretty people who don't look so good
Some are mopping floors and some are shopping wood
But they try and they try
Waiting for the clouds to disappear from the sky
CHORUS:
Everybody's waiting for a day in the sun
Everybody's working hard to have some fun
First you want a million then a million and one
Everybody's waiting for a day in the sun
Everybody's doing everything they can
Some will count on luck and some will make a plan
If you want to get it, got to get it done
Everybody's waiting for a day in the sun
Mama said 'Listen to me,
I can't tell you what your life's gonna be
Every day there's something new, it's true
A light could shine on you'
But they try and they try
Waiting for the clouds to disappear from the sky
CHORUS
Everybody's doing everything they can
Some will count on luck and some will make a plan
If you want to get it, got to get it done
Everybody's waiting for a day in the sun
