Jerry Jeff Walker Broken Toys lyrics

There's not much to say for what was mine today
But when tomorrow comes, I'll make my way
Had planned to build a dream or two today
But everything I tried turned out mistakes
Won't stay down long, tomorrow is my day

Casting nets, catch dreams, try for what seems to be
Bend that willow round and shape things as I see
Finding that some cards are drifting in the sea
And no matter how I play them, they'll trick me
That was this day, tomorrow I'll be free


Today played unfair, left me hung up nowhere
But though it tries to break me, I don't care
Tried to bring my ship in tow to land somewhere
But today is just another chance that's left me there
Broken toys day, tomorrow's my repair

There's not much to say for what was mine today
Won't stay down long, tomorrow is my day
