If you want money in your pocket
and a top hat on your head
a hot meal on your table
a blanket on your bed
well today is grey skies 
tomorrow is tears 
you'll have to wait til yesterday is here

Well I'm going to New York City
and I'm leaving on a train
if you want to stay behind 
and wait til I come back again 
well today is grey skies 
tomorrow is tears 
you'll have to wait til yesterday is here

If you want to go where the rainbows end 
you'll have to say goodbye
All our dreams come true 
baby up ahead 
and it's out where your memories lie 

Well the road's out before me 
and the moon is shining bright 
What I want you to remember 
as I disappear tonight 
today is grey skies 
tomorrow is tears 
you'll have to wait til yesterday is here
