Sharon Jones And The Dap-Kings - Searching for a New Day lyrics

[Verse 1] Simple sounds are in my ear, coming from a radio Oh no — where did all the good times go? In the daytime all I am is a working fool And in the nighttime I’m trying to keep my cool I know that people say (Gotta be a better way) But there ain’t no golden goose that’ll get you paid [Pre-Chorus 1] Through the hard times Can’t sit on the sideline (You know we gotta get ahead) I’m gonna keep on trying [Chorus] I’ve been searching for a new day Some peace of mind is gonna come my way (And if you don’t find it?) I’ll keep on searching for it (I hope you find it) I know I’ll find it [Verse 2] If I find what I’m looking for, I could rule the world A brand new superstar, once an ordinary girl And with my newfound fame, I could lend a helping hand To all those in need, however I can Since you know just what I’m looking for Maybe you can be the one that can open up the door [Pre-Chorus 2] Can you hear me knocking? And everyone is thumping (We’re just trying to get ahead) I’m gonna keep on trying [Chorus] I’ve been searching for a new day Some peace of mind is gonna come my way (And if you don’t find it?) I’ll keep on searching for it (I know you’ll find it) I know I’ll find it X2
