One of These Days - Emmylou Harris

(earl montgomery)

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

But 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
