Better Days Ahead
Down in New Orleans
The pourin' rain is flooding the streets and lake Pontchartrain
This grey cold weather
Is bringing us down
Maybe we should just pack up and leave this town
Out there somewhere
The sun still shines
Somewhere the water tastes just like wine.
We've got to believe where there's a will there's a way
Let's live for tomorrow
Forget yesterday
There's better days ahead,
Better days ahead
With our last dime
I'd be willing to bet
There's better days ahead
Over our shoulder
What do we see?
Some tore down bridges
And bad memories
It's been a long time
Since we've held a winning hand
But the long dark tunnel
Has a light at the end.
There's better days ahead,
Better days ahead
With our last dime
I'd be willing to bet
There's better days ahead
We've had heartaches
And financial woes,
But at rock bottom
There's one way to go.
If we don't get discouraged
It's just a matter of time, yes it is
This is just a little mountain,
That I know we can climb
There's better days ahead,
Better days ahead
With our last dime
I'd be willing to bet
There's better days ahead
