Tomorrow We'll Retire Sözleri

Dad's old faded trouser and mama's old crept dress

They're not much in the passions now they can't afford the best

I know they feel neglected and sometimes in the way

Because the last time I was home I heard my mama say

Well you kids have all got married off now and left us by ourselves

My we didn't know what lonesome was until the last one of you've left

You've all got families of your own that all your friends did mar

And now that we've seen our dreams come true tomorrow we'll retire

We still have the old homeplace we paid it off last year

And we don't owe a soul a dime now everything is clear

So we'll just relive our younger days and sit here by the fire

And if we both live through the night tomorrow we'll retire

Why we've seen the rainstorms flood our fields and wash our crops away

And then the droughts would come to follow this and last for days and days

Why the point of me is work in the fields when that old sun was hot as fire

But that's all in the furthest past now tomorrow we'll retire

In health we've both been lucky but now we're gettin' kinda great

Our pension starts tomorrow it's just enough to our way

And we've lived to see you kids grow up and that's been our heart's desire

And if the world would end tonight tomorrow we'll retire so tomorrow we'll retire
