One of these days is like a Christmas in April One of these days is like a time in a rush One of these days is like a disco on death row When the music I s over, save the last dance for me So what difference does it make, We all end up in the same wake To dream of love or to dream of hate A price or a pauper, the doctor or a leper We all end up feeding worms one of these days One of these days - Oh yeah One of these days - Oh yeah One of these days is gonna take me away And I can't believe it - No, no How old tramp John slept outside one night and froze It was in the municipal park That he laid his weary bones down Hey! Hey! Hey! Who am I to pass judgement that way? On a prince or a pauper or priest it's all the same So when I finally drop off this mortal rock Was it one day too early or one day too late? One of these days - Oh yeah One of these days - Oh yeah One of these days is gonna take me away
