Day after today

by Bethany Joy Lenz

lyricscopy.com
Said I want to live the city life
This small town could eat me alive
I gotta pack my things and go where the railroad takes me
Mama´s too poor to send me away
But I´ve been saving up on most everyday
Little bit out of each check from the Gas & Deli

And the whistle keeps on blowing
And the train keeps on rolling

And he said
I ain´t never been to New York City
I ain´t seen the San Francisco Bay
I ain´t never tried my hand in Vegas
But you bet your bottom dollar
That´s where I´m going the day after today

So he locked the door and he killed the lights
Took a six pack to get him through the night
Didn´t have a plan just a good sense of direction
And Maybelline, his beauty queen
She cried all night cause the sheet were clean
But he left her a lovers´ note there apologizing

He said I hear the whistle blowing
Gotta catch it the train is rolling

And he said
I ain´t never been to New York City
I ain´t seen the San Francisco Bay
I ain´t never tried my hand in Vegas
But you bet your bottom dollar
That´s where I´m going the day after today

The air is thick on the concrete isle
Ain´t nothing green for like twenty miles
And he ain´t use to the sun and moon a hiding
So he took his foot from out his mouth
And he packed his things and went back down south
But Maybelline said "Babe my time´s arising."

Said I hear the whistle blowing
Gotta catch it the train is rolling

And she said
I ain´t never been to New York City
I ain´t seen the San Francisco Bay
I ain´t never tried my hand in Vegas
I never seen the L.A lights shine bright
Bright, brighter than your smile was ever
Brighter than my desire was ever
Longer burning than our love was ever....

And she said
I ain´t never been to New York City
I ain´t seen the San Francisco Bay
I ain´t never tried my hand in Vegas
But you bet your bottom dollar
That´s where I´m going the day after today

Day after today
