Lyrics

[Verse 1] Everything's working out fine You got all the things you want and I got mine No more struggle and strife Kicking back and digging, it's a wonderful life And then (And then) you awoke (You awoke) to start the day out laughing It's some kind of a joke [Chorus 1] Everybody's waitin' for a day in the sun Everybody's workin' hard to have some fun First you want a million, then a million and one Everybody's waitin' 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 But they try (They try), and they try (And they try) Waiting for the clouds to disappear from the sky [Chorus 1] Everybody's waitin' for a day in the sun Everybody's workin' hard to have some fun First you want a million, then a million and one Everybody's waiting for a day in the sun [Chorus 2] Everybody's doin' everything they can Some will count on luck and some will make a plan If you wanna get it, gotta get it done Everybody's waitin' 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" (Oh-oh, yeah, oh, ooh, yeah) [Refrain] But they try (They try) and they try (And they try) Waiting for the clouds to disappear from the sky [Chorus 1] Everybody's waitin' for a day in the sun Everybody's workin' hard to have some fun First you want a million, then a million and one Everybody's waiting for a day in the sun (A day in the sun) [Chorus 2] Everybody's doin' everything they can Some will count on luck and some will make a plan If you wanna get it, gotta get it done Everybody's waitin' for a day in the sun [Outro] A day in the sun A day in the sun A day in the sun A day in the sun
