Lyrics:

Well, I'm standing here, freezing outside your golden garden
Got my ladder leaned up against your wall
Tonight's the night we planned to run away together
Come on, Dolly Mae, there's no time to stall
But now you're telling me
That I, I think I better wait 'til tomorrow
I think I better wait 'til tomorrow
I think I better wait 'til tomorrow
Gotta make sure it's right, so until tomorrow, good night

Oh, Dolly Mae, how can you hang me up this way?
Oh, on the phone you said you wanted to run off with me today
Now I'm standing here like some turned down serenading fool
Hearing strange words stutter from the mixed up mind of you
And you keep tellin' me
I think I better wait 'til tomorrow
I think I better wait 'til tomorrow
I think I better wait 'til tomorrow
Gotta make sure it's right, so until tomorrow, good night, oh

Oh, Dolly Mae, girl, you must be insane
So unsure of yourself, leaning from your unsure window pane
Do I see a silhouette of somebody pointing something from a tree?
Click bang, what a hang, your daddy just shot poor me
And I hear you say, as I fade away
I think I better wait 'til tomorrow
I think I better wait 'til tomorrow
I think I better wait 'til tomorrow
Won't be around, won't be around, won't be around, yeah
I think I better wait 'til tomorrow
I think I better wait 'til tomorrow
Don't have to wait, don't have to wait
I think I better wait 'til tomorrow
