One Of These Days
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Terry Adams rode the same bus as me
We mapped out our lives on Bluebird 3
He was going to be a football star in spite of his family
He was only 19 years old when he died
In a head on down at Shoal Creek
Jay Cobb was the best I ever saw
He could outrun the wind you oughta seen him throw a ball
But he was struck down by an unknown disease
My friends lost their lives
But I remember their dreams
One of these days I'll fly to the Moon
One of these days I'll have nothing to prove
One of these days I'll get out of this place
And I'll be somebody one of these days
One of these days
It's been a long time since I lost my friends
And I know I don't think enough of them
I'm just trying to get through living like I've got nothin' to lose
Sometimes I feel 'em lookin' down on me
And I guess maybe it makes me feel a little bit guilty
And I wonder if I'll ever change my ways
Well, I'm sure I will
One of these days I'll fly to the Moon
One of these days I'll have nothing to prove
One of these days I'll get out of this place
And I'll be somebody
One of these days I'll fly to the Moon
One of these days I'll have nothing to prove
One of these days I'll get out of this place
And I'm gonna be somebody one of these days
One of these days
One of these days
One of these days
