If you want money in your pocket
And a top hat on your head
And a hot meal on your table
And a blanket on your bed
Well, today is gray skies, tomorrow is tears
You'll have to wait till yesterday's here

Well, I'm going to New York City
And I'm leaving on a train
And if you want to stay behind
And wait till I get back again
Well, today is gray skies, tomorrow is tears
You'll have to wait till yesterday's here

If wanna go where the rainbows end
You'll have to say goodbye
All our dreams come true, baby, up ahead
In a town where your memories lie

Now the road is out before me
And the moon is shining bright
What I want you to remember
As I disappear tonight
Well, today is gray skies, tomorrow is tears
You'll have to wait till yesterday's here
