Tomorrow's Taking My Baby Away - Jerry Lee Lewis

When the sun comes up tomorrow

God, how I’ll be wishing

I could raise my hand an' turn back the light of dawn

I found the airline ticket

She’d been hiding in the kitchen

Tomorrow at eleven she’ll be on that plane and gone

Well, it never crossed my mind

That she’d found another lover

She still gave me her young body

In her warm and simple way

Got that old gut burnin' feelin'

God, I’ll be dyin' while she’s leaving

And I know now that tomorrow’s takin', baby away

Well, sleeping here beside me

I could almost swear she loved me

But a faint trace of a smile

It comes across her lovely daze

Wish I could look inside her mind

But God, I’m so afraid I’d find her

Dreaming of the man who’ll take my place

She must-a be meeting him in his room

That’s her ticket destination

But it’s just a stop along the way

While she’s living her new life so swell

I’ll be walkin' the back streets of hell

'Cause I know now that tomorrow’s taken baby away

'Cause I know now that tomorrow’s taken, baby away
