One of These Days Songtext
von John Lee Hooker

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, oh 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 gonna live the life my mother lived
Where I can meet her and shake her hand
One of these days, one of these days
Mmm, one of these days

I'm gonna walk, I′m gonna talk
All of my friends
One of these days
Mhm, 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 trouble
In the deep blue sea
Then I′m gonna walk the holy road
The narrow path up to heaven
One of these days, mmm, one of these days

I'm gonna walk one of these days
Meet my mother, all of my friends
One of these days, mmm, one of these days
And my trouble will be over
