We'll Get Ahead Someday (1968)
We'll get ahead someday
We'll get ahead someday
If the sun comes up and we both cut down
We'll get ahead someday

Well I get up early and work hard all day listen to the troubles of my friends
But I don't realize till I get home what an awful shape we're in
The cars wore out the kids need shoes got a bill from the doctor today
The landlord said you'll get out tomorrow if you don't get me some pay

We'll get ahead someday
We'll get ahead someday
If the sun comes up and we both cut down
We'll get ahead someday


The paper says there's a sale downtown I gotta have some money today
Well there's things at home that ain't never been used you bought last bargain day
Well you go out on Saturday night you spend too much money on wine
Well I work hard all week long and I gotta have a little fun sometimes

We'll get ahead someday
We'll get ahead someday
If the sun comes up and we both cut down
We'll get ahead someday

If the sun comes up and we both cut down
We'll get ahead someday
