Well, I won't have to chop no wood I can be bad or I can be good I can be any way that I feel One of these days Might be a woman that's dressed in black Be a hobo by the railroad track I'll be gone like the wayward wind One of these days One of these days it will soon be all over, cut and dry And I won't have this urge to go all bottled up inside One of these days I'll look back and I'll say I left in time 'Cause somewhere for me I know there's peace of mind I might someday walk across this land Carrying the Lord's book in my hand Goin' 'cross the country singin' loud as I can One of these days But I won't have trouble on my back Cuttin' like the devil with a choppin' axe Got to shake it off of my back One of these days One of these days it will soon be all over, cut and dry And I won't have this urge to go all bottled up inside One of these days I'll look back and I'll say I left in time 'Cause somewhere for me I know there's peace of mind There's gonna be peace of mind for me One of these days

Wish someone would tell me when I won't think of you again I'll get past the emptiness and Let a little happiness back in Pretending not to care Leaves me half way there One of these one of these days I'll be completely over you Heaven knows how long it will take And one of these one of these days I'll find somebody who'll love your memorie away One of these days One of these days Some how some way Ever since you've been gone Time has a way of dragging on and on Friends drop by to comfort me, But i'm not much company for long Oh i'll get past the what was If i live long enough One of these one of these days I'll be completely over you Heaven knows how long it will take And one of these one of these days I'll find somebody who'll love your memorie away Some way One of these days One of these days Some how some way One of these one of these days I'll be completely over you Heaven knows how long it will take And one of these one of these days I'll find somebody who'll love your memorie away One of these days One of these days One of these days One of these days Some how some way One of these days One of these days...

Floyd was a trapper way back in the holler Made moonshine so he could make a dollar Six feet tall, dressed in overalls And wore himself a long gray beard People say Floyd came to town one day But two law dogs got in his way Floyd never hurt no one in his life But they never came back this way No, they never came back this way And the people say... Aye, aye, aye, aye hear the hound dogs moan Aye, aye, aye, aye now that Floyd is long gone And the creeper was a creepin' and the souls they were hollerin' singin' Aye, aye, aye, aye, aye The G-men came out to track him down But the swamp was too deep, even one of them drowned They sent in the hellhounds but they turned around singing How how how how how And the people say... Aye, aye, aye, aye hear the hound dogs moan Aye, aye, aye, aye now that Floyd is long gone And the creeper was a creepin' and the souls they were hollerin' singin' Aye, aye, aye, aye, aye Yeah the souls are they were cryin' Yeah the creeper he was creepin' Sherriff Boudreaux came to talk to his neighbors All they could say is he was eaten by a gator The legend lives on but Floyd he's at home singing How how how how how And the soul said... Aye, aye, aye, aye hear the hound dogs moan Aye, aye, aye, aye now that Floyd is long gone Aye, aye, aye, aye now that Floyd is long gone There's a full moon now The moon was shinin' bright singing Aye aye aye aye aye

Last night I had too much to drink Sitting in a club with so many fools Playing to rules Trying to impress but feeling rather empty I had another drink (Drink - a - drink - a - drink - a - drink, ah) What a way to spend that evening They all turn up with their friends Playing the game But in the scene I should've been Far away (Away - away - away - away - away) Getting up, I feel as if I'm remembering this scene before I open the door to an empty room Then I forget The telephone rings and someone speaks She would very much like to go out to a show So what can I do? I can't think what to say She sees through anyway (Away - away - away - away - away) Out of the front door I go Traffic's moving rather slow Arriving late, there she waits Looking very angry, as cross as she can be Be - a - be - a - be - a - be - a - be Getting up, I feel as if I'm remembering this scene before I open the door to an empty room Then I forget Ah, Ah
