Everybody talks about a new world in the morning A new world in the morning so they say I myself don't talk about a new world in the morning A new world in the morning that's today And I can feel a new tomorrow coming on And I don't know why I have to make a song Everybody talks a bout a new world in the morning New world in the morning takes so long I met a man who had a dream he had since he was twenty
I met that man when he was eighty-one He said too many folks just stand and wait up till the morning Don't they know tomorrow never comes And he would feel a new tomorrow coming on And when he'd smile his eyes would twinkle up in fun Everybody talks about a new world in the morning New world in the morning never comes
