Lyrics

When I was young folks used to say,
“Spend your youth working, build your future that way.
Put your money aside; wait for tomorrow…”
but you can’t take it with you when you go!

I had dreams I’d wished upon a star.
I thought I’d be someone; I could go far.
Set my dreams aside; wait for tomorrow…
but you can’t take ‘em with you when you go!

Seems to me that some folks think that life ain’t never gonna end.
They spend their time time thinking ’bout tomorrow; yet today is all we have.

So pack up your cares; toss your fears away!
You can think ‘bout your future but live for today.
And if you must choose don’t wait for tomorrow…
‘cause you can’t take it with you when you go.

Some say I’m rash or maybe a fool,
that the day might come when there’s nothing I can do.
Still, (I) live for today… even plan for tomorrow;
but you can’t take it with you when you go.

Seems to me that some folks think that life ain’t never gonna end.
They spend their time thinking ’bout tomorrow; yet today is all we have.

So pack up your cares; toss your fears away!
You can think ‘bout your future but live for today.
And if you must choose don’t wait for tomorrow…
‘cause you can’t take it with you when you go.

If you must choose don’t wait for tomorrow…
‘cause you can’t take it with you when you go.

    Well done. Really enjoyed the tempo and the message. Easy to sing along with or just hum that catchy tune. I hear opening for a harmonica in there. I’m just saying. Also would like to add some input on the upcoming video. Way to go guys.
