hurry, tuesday child

hurry

tuesday child

its time to be a goin'

your good news day

child

has come at last

hold your chance in your dusty hand

one way ticket to a promised land

i understand

no more blues day child

hard time is far behind you

hurry

tuesday child

your fortune's gonna find you

oh the good life is just ahead

satin shoes and a feather bed

instead of

yes ma'am

no sir

yes sir

right away sir

no more week's done

may i have my pay

sir

no more have to do

can't do

don't do

here's your chance to do anything you want to do

hurry

tuesday child

go on before it's too late

dream comes trues-day child

comes once and it won't wait

slip all you own in a paper sack

got nothing to hold you

got nothing to pack

you won't be back

tuesday child
