One of These Days by Rice, Rice, Hillman & Pedersen

Well I won't have to chop no wood I can be bad or I can be good
I can be any way that I feel, one of these days
Might be a woman that's dressed in black be a hobo by the railroad track
I'll be gone like the wayward wind, one of these days

One of these days it will soon be all over cut and dry
And I won't have this urge to go all bottled up inside
One of these days I'll look back and I'll say I left in time
'Cause somewhere for me I know there's peace of mind

I might someday walk across this land carrying the Lord's book in my hand
Goin' cross the country singin' loud as I can, one of these days
And I won't have trouble on my back cuttin' like the Devil with a choppin' axe
Got to shake it off my back, one of these days

One of these days it will soon be all over cut and dry
And I won't have this urge to go all bottled up inside
One of these days I'll look back and I'll say I left in time
'Cause somewhere for me I know there's peace of mind
There's gonna be peace of mind for me, one of these days
