Verse 1: Up every morning at the crack of dawn Nights as short as the days are long Life turned out to be another magazine Livin' with a stranger now Girl i knew got away somehow She went out with two bit gasoline On the go,back - you know what i mean Now when the word was Thunderbird And the price recorded twice Drinkin' wine and lovin' you was fun Verse 2: Ah,but love turned out to be a passin' thing Different bird of a different wing Some damn fool put a dollar twenty nine On a jug of Thunderbird wine And Lord i don't know if i'm gonna make it Don't know if i'll have the strength to take it Everything's hung up in yesterday Verse 3: There's you a secret-minded social girl Takin' short cuts in a woman's world She won't let her hair down when i'm home Society's just slavery And security is killing me I work hard for it but i give it all away If i could go back to yesterday Chorus (x2).
