I say I need just one more chance And a five-step plan to follow But here I am again On the wrong side of tomorrow A year ago I had a woman’s love A warm soft bed and a roof above Until that day when it all went south She came home and, well, she threw me out She said “Hon, I ain’t letting you in Till you sober up an’ you try again“ Don’t sound that hard, till you’re knee-deep in it But I can do it, if she give me a minute The wrong side of tomorrow A day late and a dollar short Just how low do I have to go Before I finally change my course? I say I need just one more chance And a five-step plan to follow But here I am again On the wrong side of tomorrow Time has never been on my side The more I buy, the more it flies The wrong side of tomorrow A day late and a dollar short Just how low do I have to go Before I finally change my course? I say I need just one more chance And a five-step plan to follow But here I am again On the wrong side of tomorrow The wrong side of tomorrow [x2] ►The Petersens: We celebrate American roots music with family values, and perform full time in Branson, Missouri in the USA.
