Lyrics

Today while the blossoms still cling to the vine
 I'll taste your strawberries, I'll drink your sweet wine
 A million tomorrows shall all pass away
 'Ere I forget all the joy that is mine
 Today
 I'll be a dandy, and I'll be a rover
 You'll know who I am by the songs that I sing
 I'll feast at your table, I'll sleep in your clover
 Who cares what the morrow shall bring
 Today while the blossoms still cling to the vine
 I'll taste your strawberries, I'll drink your sweet wine
 A million tomorrows shall all pass away
 'Ere I forget all the joy that is mine
 Today
 I can't be contented with yesterday's glory
 I can't live on promises, winter to spring
 Today is my moment, now is my story
 I'll laugh, and I'll cry, and I'll sing
 Today while the blossoms still cling to the vine
 I'll taste your strawberries, I'll drink your sweet wine
 A million tomorrows shall all pass away
 'Ere I forget all the joy that is mine
 Today
 ♪
 Sing it with us
 Today while the blossoms still cling to the vine
 I'll taste your strawberries, I'll drink your sweet wine
 A million tomorrows shall all pass away
 'Ere I forget all the joy that is mine
 Today

 Well you guys sing real good!
 Before we go any further tonight, I'd like you folks
 To meet my friends up here
 It pleases me more that I can tell you
 That the relationship I have with these guys is that of friends
 Ah yeah Pokey, how you doin' tonight?
 On electric and acoustic guitar and pedal steel guitar
 And weird slide dough-bro guitar from Aspen, Colorado, Steve Weisberg
 Also on guitar, fiddle, mandolin, banjo, from Aspen Colorado
 Mister John Sommers
 My good friend on the bass fiddle, from New York City
 Mister Dick Kniss
 On the drums, one of the finest in the world in my opinion
 Also from New York, Mister Herb Lovelle
 From Los Angeles, one of the finest in the world on percussion
 Mister Hal Blaine
 Gives me a great deal of pleasure to introduce to you our arranger
 And conductor, a gentleman that I think is simply a genius
 Mister Lee Holdrige in the orchestra
