[Intro]
I want to, um, I wanna do a song
I have, I have good news and I wanna share it with you now
I got nominated for a Grammy this year
And the song is this song here
I want to take out a second and introduce you to someone
Light him up please, yeah
You know who he is, but this is our musical director
This is Nat Adderley, Jr
Nat
And I introduce you to Nat because Nat produced and arranged this song on my album, on the last album
And, uh, it got nominated for a Grammy, and we are so proud and thank you, I thank you mucho, mucho much
And the other good thing is I have a new album that's coming out on June 10th
That's right, Tuesday morning, June 10th
Oh yeah
Singers, why don't we ease on in there
Check it

[Refrain]
(Sha-la-la, la-la-la-la-la) Oh yeah
(Sha-la-la-la-la) Any day you'll be gone
(Sha-la-la, la-la-la-la-la) Oh yeah
(Sha-la-la-la-la) Any day you'll be gone
(Sha-la-la, la-la-la-la-la) Whoa, whoa
(Sha-la-la-la-la) Oh yeah
[Verse 1]
Any day now
I will hear you say, "Goodbye, my love"
Then you'll be on your way
Then my wild beautiful bird, you will have flown, ooh oh
Any day now, I'll be all alone
Oh, oh, hey, hey, hey, yeah
I know, baby, now, yeah, yeah
Hey, ooh-hoo, yeah

[Verse 2]
Any day now
When the clock strikes go, you'll call it off
And then my tears will flow
Then the blue shadows will fall all over town, oh
And any day now, love will let me down
'Cause you won't be around
Oh, baby, now, now, now, now, now, now, now, hey
Ooh-hoo, yeah, hey

[Bridge]
I know I shouldn't wanna keep you
If you don't wanna stay (Ooh)
Until you're gone forever
I'll keep holding (I'll keep holding on)
Holding on (I'll keep holding on) for dear life
Holding you this way
And I'm begging you to stay (Stay)
[Verse 3]
Any day now
When your restless eyes meet someone new, oh, oh
And to my sad surprise
Then the blue shadows will fall all over town, yeah
Any day now, I won't last for long
'Cause any day, you'll be gone

[Refrain]
(Sha-la-la, la-la-la-la-la) Oh yeah
(Sha-la-la-la-la) Any day you'll be gone
(Sha-la-la, la-la-la-la-la) Mercy now
(Sha-la-la-la-la) You'll be gone, you'll be gone, you'll be gone
(Sha-la-la, la-la-la-la-la) You know, and I know any day now
(Sha-la-la-la-la) Any day you'll be gone
(Sha-la-la, la-la-la-la-la) Mercy, baby
(Sha-la-la-la-la) Any day you'll be gone

[Outro]
Ah, I wanna, I wanna take one second out
I wanna tell you that the, the person who—
I remember one time I was, um, playing hooky and I had gone to the Apollo to see, uh, this person and The Shirelles
And I was quite annoyed because he was headlining over The Shirelles
"How can anybody headline over The Shirelles?" is what I thought then
And he's here tonight, the original singer of this song and the original maker of this song
Chuck Jackson is here, and I just wanna say "hi" to him
Warrick, we need some lights on approximately Section GG, something
GG, LL, NN or something
Yeah, yeah, there you go, haha
Everybody, Chuck Jackson, yeah
Is Burt Bacharach here? No? Burt's not here?
When I wrote that song for Chuck Jackson, let me tell you something
Oh, I was so tired when I got through writing that, haha
Ah, we're going to, uh, do this here
