I took a walk through the city one night
Saw some faces, but I didn't want to be found
Her alley's juxtaposed with her lights shining so bright
That crowd camuflage ain't never let me down
I took a drive through the country one night
Saw the rivers beds all dust and dry
Her banks were parched and heavens went dark
And the clouds they began to cry
This is what they said

A new days coming, a new days coming
A new days coming for us
But don't be sad, leave your past in the past
Let the new days coming wash all over us

I took a trip to the back of my mind
And saw a man I didn't recognize
I know, I got some bad coming
But I can't hang up on that
Just put my chips in and let it ride
Take that ride

A new days coming, a new days coming
A new days coming for us
But make no mistake, we've had some bad breaks
But a new days coming for us
Baby, we'll get by

A new days coming for us
But don't be sad, leave your worst in the past
Let that new days barrel over us
