Johnny had a plan gonna see the world knew he had to go
Gonna take his girl and they make the walk to Ontario
She said: "Why you looking at me that way?"
"You gonna go or you gonna stay?"
Get up, get up, get up, hear what I say
Wake up, wake up, wake up, to find a better way
Get up, get up, get up, it´ a brand new day!
So he flagged a ride on an east bound freight going anywhere
Driving through the night through the wind and rain it took him all the way there
Counting the hours as the miles slipped away
in the sound on the wheels he could still hear her say
Get up, get up, get up, whatever it takes
Wake up, wake up, wake up, give your head shake
Get up, get up, get up, it´ a brand new day!
It´ a brand new day
Whatcha' thinking about man you better get out
I´m gonna be someone have my day in the sun
Well you won't know if you don't try
So bye bye baby, bye bye baby, bye bye
Sometimes you lay awake thinkin' about the things that you never told her
So on a starry night from the noisy bar you telephoned her
"You could come down I´ll meet your train "
She just laughed and said: "Some people never change"
Get up, get up, get up, hear what I say
Wake up, wake up, wake up, go find a better way
Get up, get up, get up, it´ a brand new day!
It´ a brand new day
Gotta find a better way
Say now bye bye, bye bye baby, bye bye
It´ a brand new day
It´ a brand new day
