Lyrics

"IT'LL BE WORTH SOMETHING SOMEDAY"

words and music by Perry Rohrer

verse 1
MOMMA LOVED YARD SALES
SHE'D CHECK THE PAPER EVERY DAY
EVERY WEEKEND SHE WOULD GO AND BUY
WHAT SHOULD'VE BEEN THROWN AWAY
KNICK KNACKS AND FIGURINES
OLD DISHES, TOYS, AND DOLLS
ANYTHING THAT CAUGHT HER EYE
SHE COLLECTED IT ALL
AND I'D JUST LAUGH WHEN SHE'D SAY
IT'LL BE WORTH SOMETHING SOMEDAY

verse 2
HER ATTIC GOT KINDA FULL
COULDN'T KEEP THE CAR IN THE GARAGE
I HAD TO BUILD A SHED OUT BACK
AND A CARPORT FOR THE DODGE
HARDLY A DAY WENT BY
WHEN IT WOULDN'T GET TO ME
I'D ASK HER PLEASE LET GO OF THIS STUFF
SHE'D SAY JUST YOU WAIT AND SEE
AND I'D JUST LAUGH WHEN SHE'D SAY
IT'LL BE WORTH SOMETHING SOMEDAY

bridge
THIS SATURDAY WILL BE THE FIRST TIME
SHE WON'T NEED HER QUARTERS AND DIMES
AND I'M FINDING OUT
AS I GO THROUGH EVERYTHING
IT'S WORTH MORE TO ME THAN ANY AUCTION WILL BRING
SHE WAS RIGHT ALL ALONG
AND I JUST COULDN'T SEE

close
NO, I JUST LAUGHED WHEN SHE WOULD SAY
IT'LL BE WORTH SOMETHING SOMEDAY
MOMMA LOVED YARD SALES
SHE'D CHECK THE PAPER EVERY DAY
