Billy Joe Shaver - Yesterday Tomorrow Was Today lyrics

When the autumn leaves were fallen and the winter winds were callin' And the southbound geese were chasin' summertime I was hungry then,and slender as well as I remember Fighting for a place in life I could call mine Yesterday tomorrow was today,you dreamer Yesterday tomorrow was today At the age of five and ten I put a handle on the wind And learned to travel on the heels of summertime Like a souped up 50 Ford down the road of life I roared Never carin' for a thing I left behind Yesterday tomorrow was so far away Yesterday I was runnin' wild and free Yesterday tomorrow was today young man Yesterday tomorrow was today From New-York to L.A, up the San Francisco bay To the shimmerin' Paris lights and the warm Australian nights In the honky-tonks and bars and the back seats of the cars I learned my lessons well and I proudly wore my scars Yesterday tomorrow was a blinding thing Yesterday tomorrow came so fast Yesterday tomorrow was today old friend Yesterday tomorrow came at last In the solitary gloom of some old lonely hotel room While struggling for a way to right the wrong The Savior Jesus-Christ came into my life The old man pa**ed away and the young man lives today Yesterday tomorrow and today he is the same Yesterday he washed my sins away Yesterday tomorrow and today are the same Yesterday tomorrow is today
