►LYRICS - Wrong Side of Tomorrow (Emmett Original)
------------
Wakin' up on a concrete slab
On the other side of the railroad tracks
A puddle of shame poolin' around my head
My good sense upped and left me for dead
I wanna quit, but then again I don't
Say I'll do better, but I know I won't
Keep thinkin' one day I will change my ways
But it's always too little, too late
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
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 bide, 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]
