Lyrics
One Of These Days
© 2010 Steve Rapson
One of these days,
I'm gonna get it right
One of these days,
I'm gonna get it right
Should I leave that apple on the tree,
Or should I take a bite?
One of these days,
I'm gonna see the light
When I play my cards,
I'm gonna play'em right
When I play my cards,
I'm gonna play'em right
I won't draw to an inside straight
So I can play all night
One of these days,
I'm gonna see the light
Well, I'm just a sinner,
I pray with all my might
Someday I'll be a winner,
and I'll see the light
Then I'll be hap-hap-happy
gettin ev'ry damn thing
right
One of these days,
I'm gonna see the light
When I drive my car,
I'm gonna drive it right
When I drive my car,
I'm gonna drive it right
Step on the brake when the light turns yellow
So I don't run those red lights
One of these days,
I'm gonna see the light
When I sweet talk my baby, I'm gonna say it right
When I sweet talk my baby, I'm gonna say it right
She says, "Does this dress make me look fat?" I say,
"No, baby, it's just nice and tight."
One of these days, I'm gonna see the light
Yes, I'm just a sinner,
I pray with all my might
Someday I'll be a winner,
and I'll see the light
Then I'll be hap-hap-happy,
gettin' ev'ry damn thing
right
One of these days,
I'm gonna see the light
Oh yeah, should I leave the apple on the tree
Or take a great big bite
