Lyrics Better Days - Southside Johnny, The Asbury Jukes

Better Days

I had the craziest dream last night
There was thunder and lightning everywhere
Hell hounds reached up and ripped a hole in the sky
Pissed in the water and spit black smoke up in the air
Demons were chasin' me all tattooed
In dollar signs, suits and ties
They wanted me to party
I woke up just in time, I heard somebody say
Better days are comin'
We’re gonna wake up and break this curse
Better days are on the way 'cause you know and I know
It can’t get no worse
Sometimes the dream seems so real
Comes to me over and over again
Last night I swear I saw America sleepin' in the streets
When does this nightmare end?
I got to find my baby
Maybe I’ll find salvation in her kiss
Tell me I’m dreamin', it’s got to get better than this
I want somebody to say
Better days are comin'
We’re gonna wake up and break this curse
Better days are on the way 'cause you know and I know
It can’t get no worse, no
I believe I see a train comin' baby
I know it’s time to take a ride
Shattered dreams and broken promises
We gotta leave 'em all behind
'Cause you know
We’re gonna catch that train, baby
We’re gonna catch that train, baby
We’re gonna catch that train
I know we’re gonna catch that train
I know we’re gonna catch that train
Whoa yeah
Better days are comin'
We’re gonna wake up and break this curse
Better days are on the way 'cause you know and I know
It can’t get no worse
It can’t get no worse
Better days are comin'
Better days are comin'
Better days are comin'
