This Is Tomorrow

Here in the hush of evenin'

On a night in June

Overhearin' conversations

Bayin' at the moon

Suddenly a voice I'm hearing

Sweet to my ear

This is tomorrow's callin'

Wishin' you were here

Layin' in my motel bedroom

Feelin' ceilin' blues

Wall to wall a TV's twitchin'

Clearly not a muse

Then flashin' through the interference

Beams a thousand tunes

This is tomorrow callin'

What have I to lose?

Truckin' by the railway station

I'm on the road again

Steerin' clear of all termination

Unto the point of pain

When steamin' through on cue

I hear that wailin' whistle blow

If this is tomorrow callin'

Oh, what a way to go

Day to day you live old fashioned

Hi-toned, fancy free

A double take, an image-spittin'

Tailored to a T

While history is tellin' you

The same old thing

This is tomorrow callin'

Let's stick a new oar in

This is tomorrow callin'

Y'all an' come on in
