Intro

Verse 1

Everything's working out fine

You've got all the things

 you want and I've got mine

No more struggle and strife

Kicking back and digging

 it's a wonderful life

Refrain 1

 And then you awoke to start

the day out laughing

It's some kind of a joke

Chorus 1

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

Verse 2

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 chopping wood

Refrain 2

 But they try and they try

Waiting for the clouds

to disappear from the sky

(Repeat Chorus 1)

Chorus 2

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

Bridge

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"
