Lena Horne
Tomorrow Mountain
[Verse 1]
Just across Tomorrow Mountain
There's a happy city, they say
Where the people are grand and time is planned
So it's Christmas every day

[Verse 2]
'Neath the scotch and soda fountain
There's a treat in store for us guys
Under cigarette trees, we'll take our ease
While the cops fan off the flies

[Bridge]
There you will be a lucky sinner
With no conscience for your guide
Each horse you pick will be a winner
And the doors of every bank are open wide

[Verse 3]
Far across Tomorrow Mountain
There's a life that's fancy and free
On a platinum street we'll plant our feet
It's a land that's fair to see
Won't you hurry there with me?

[Verse 4]
Just across Tomorrow Mountain
Every girl is queen of the May
And the kitchens I'm told are lined with gold
And there ain't no bills to pay
[Verse 5]
Can't you cross that distant mountain
Where it rains Chanel Number Five?
And the gutters I think are paved with mink
And the diamond bushes thrive

[Bridge]
Pigs trot around already roasted
Won't you have a slice of ham?
Marshmallows bloom already toasted
And the clouds are made of marmalade and jam

[Verse 6]
Can't you see Tomorrow Mountain?
Can't you watch it glimmer and glow?
It's a wonderful town that's upside down
And it's full of easy dough
Won't you pack your bags and go?
