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 chopping 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
