We'll Get Ahead Someday

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 an' work hard all day Listen to the troubles of my friends But I don't realize 'til I get home What an awful shape we're in The car's 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've 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
