To-Morrow 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 No.5?

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?
