Tomorrow We'll Retire |
| 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 |
