Tomorrow

From the Broadway Musical "ANNIE"
Lyrics by Martin Charnin
Music by Charles Strouse

General
Children love to sing this song.  For a Grade 1-3 choir the song hasn't become overdone yet.  It is something they might recognize.  They can certainly find many recordings of it to sing-a-long to at home.
It is popular because it is a positive song - 'I'll just stick out my chin, and grin, and say..."

Learning:
Some phrases start on an off-beat.
Rhythm is not constant.

Words
The sun'll come out tomorrow,
bet your bottom dollar that tomorrow there'll be sun
Jus' thinking about tomorrow
clears away the cobwebs and the sorrow till there's none.
When I'm stuck with a day that's gray and lonely,
I just stick out my chin and grin and say:
Oh! the sun'll come out tomorrow
So you got to hang on till tomorrow - come what may!
Tomorrow, tomorrow, I love ya tomorrow, 
you're only a day away.
