One of These Days

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
