One Of These Days

[Verse]
I got to wear my long white robe
One of these days, one of these days
I'm gonna put on them golden slippers
One of these days
I'm gonna meet all of my friends
One of these days, one of these days
I'm gonna walk the holy road, one of these days
I'm gonna walk the narrow path one of these days
I'm gonna walk, yeah, oh, yeah, the holy road
One of these days
I'm gonna shake hands with my mother, one of these days
She been dead so many years
But I'm gon' live a life my mother lived
Where I can meet her and shake her hand
One of these days, one of these days
Mmmmm, one of these days
I'm gonna walk, I'm gonna talk
All of my friend, one of these days
Mmm-hmm, one of these days
One of these days
Gonna lay, lay down my burden
I'm gonna take it, oh
Lay it aside, all of my troubles, in the deep blue sea
And then I'm gonna walk the holy roarin', the narrow path
Up to heaven, one of these days
Mmmm-mmmm, one of these days
I'm gonna walk, one of these days
Meet my mother, all of my friend, one of these days
Mmmm, one of these days

[Outro]
And my troubles will be over
