Lyrics
YESTERDAY'S GIRL
By Floramay Holliday
1. The day breaks and the night makes
It's way into the past
Got a head full of hurtin, a mouth like cotton
And a big old empty glass
I know who did it, It's all right
I must have been somebody else last night
Oh, Yesterday's Girl
She'll leave you in a world of hurt
2. She born spoiled rotten in the land of cotton
Way on down in Dixie
She used to dance till dawn with her high heels on
Feelin' young and sexy
Come the morning when her dress is torn and
Her feet are in a lot of pain
Yesterday's Girl is gonna take all the blame.
CHORUS I
Tomorrow never comes for Yesterday's Girl.
She's got it all tied up in the here and now,
She's gonna give it a whirl.
It's the age-old riddle, gotta pay the fiddle
For the things you've said and done
But Yesterday's Girl is gonna have all the fun
3. Sun's gone down, the moon's hangin' around
And she's out again
It's all she can do these days
to keep up with her younger friends.
She knows she needs to settle down
But for now, she's doing just fine
She's gonna rock it out
Just one more time
CHORUS II
Tomorrow never comes for Yesterday's Girl.
She's got it all laid out in the here and now,
She's gonna take it around the world.
Shows to go, you never know,
What she'll say or do
But Yesterday's Girl ain't never gonna sing the blues-
It's old news.

Yesterday's Girl, yeah
Yesterday's Girl, yodel-eh-hee-hoo
Yeah, yeah, yeah
INTRO I IV V
The day breaks and the night makes
It's way into the past
