Better Days

Tell me, people, why you looking down?
Oh, I know what's going on, it won't come back around
Tell me, people, it may look like the end
Don't let it drag you down, let's just try it again

I won't stand and tell you now that everything's alright
Even though the time's looking bad
You shouldn't be so worried, you shouldn't be so sad

Because, people, I know we're bound for better days
I said, people, better days will come my way

Tell me, darling, why you lookin' so blue?
Won't you dry those tears now, honey?
You got your whole life ahead of you

Sometimes you gotta look past the things that tear you down
Just get up and dance, sing it out loud
Soon you'll be happy, soon you'll be proud

Because, people, I know we're bound for better days (better days)
And I said, people, better days will come my way (better days)

I don't know what's around the bend
But I sure know that it's not the end
Soon you'll be happy, soon you will smile
You just have to wait, it might take a little while

Tell me, people, why you looking down?
Oh, I don't know what's going on, but it won't come back around
Tell me, people, it may look like the end
But don't let it drag you down, let's just try it again

Oh, I said, people, I know we're bound for better days
I said, people, better days will come my way
Oh, I said, people, I know we're bound for better days (better days)
I said, people, better days will come my way (better days)

Better days will come my way
Better days will come my way
Better days will come my way
Better days will come my way
Ooh, I said, people, better days will come my way

Oh, I feel it (better days will come, better days will come)
Oh, them coming now (better days will come, better days will come)
Bring it on, those better days
Come on now, I feel those better days
Oh, I said, people, people, people, people
Oh, come on and grab another time
I can feel them, can't you feel them?
Oh, I feel them coming, baby

Oh, oh, oh!
I feel those better days, mm (better days will come, better days will come)
Better days (better days will come, better days will come my way)
