Lyrics

Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo
Doo, doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo
Doo, doo-doo-doo
The same folks that put you where you are today
Tomorrow, they just might take it away
The same folks that put you where you are today
Tomorrow, they just might take it away, yeah
People don't stop to think about
How they got where they are
They're too busy livin' a good life
Playin' the role of a movie star, yeah
They ain't got time to understand
They're too busy seekin' glory
When a poor man needs a helpin' hand
They call it a hard luck story, yeah
The same folks that put you where you are today
Tomorrow, they just might take it away, yeah
You know, the same folks that put you where you are today
Tomorrow, they just might take it away
You might be rich and wealthy
And got money to burn (Oh yeah, now)
Just remember it's those little wills
That make the big wheels turn
You may be big and famous (Yeah, yeah)
And all the world renowned
But just remember that what goes up
Someday must come down
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo
Doo, doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo
Doo, doo-doo-doo
The same folks that put you where you are today
Tomorrow, they just might take it away, yeah
You know, the same folks that put you where you are today
Tomorrow, they just might take it away (Woo-hoo)
The same folks (The same folks) that put you where you are today
Tomorrow, they just might take it away, yeah, yeah
You know, the same folks (The same folks)
That put you where you are today
Tomorrow (Tomorrow), they just might take it away, yeah
