Lyrics One of These Days - Dan Penn

One of these days and it won't be long
You'll look for me, and I'll be gone
The winds of time will have their day
Just like leaves I'll blow away

And I know (I know) there come a time
When the Lord (The Lord) will draw the line
You better get busy and change your ways
Life's runnin' out one of these days

One of these days we won't be here
All at once we'll disappear
To who knows where, God knows where
Do you? The lamb is waitin' there

Yes, I know (I know) there'll come a time
When the Lord (The Lord) will draw the line
You better get busy and change your ways
Life's runnin' out one of these days

Goodness and mercy
Surely will find me a place and time
We'll walk on streets that are paved with gold
And a mansion shall be mine in time

If you were born just yesterday
You ain't got long in this world to stay
So live your life and run your race
Then move on to a better place

Oh, I know (I know) there come a time
When the Lord (the Lord) will draw the line
You better get busy and change your ways
Life's runnin' out one of these days
Life's runnin' out one of these days
One of these days
