Tomorrow Mountain

Tomorrow Mountain - Lena Horne

Just across Tomorrow Mountain

There's a happy city they say

Where the people are grand

And time is planned

So it's Christmas everyday

'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

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

Far across Tomorrow Mountain

There's a life

That's fancy and free

On a platinum street

We'll plant our feet

It's the land that's fair to see

Won't you hurry there with me

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

Can't you cross

That distant mountain

Where it rains Chanel No5

And the gutters I think are

Paved with mink

And the diamond bushes thrive

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

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
