Lyrics:

(Mose Allison) One of these days I've got to get things right I'm gonna do my business in th' daylight One of these days you know I've got to get things right I'm gonna do my business out in the broad daylight One of these days I've got to get things straight I'm gonna stop acting like a reprobate One of these days you know I've got to get things straight I'm gonna stop staying out late And acting like a reprobate One of these days I've got to get in step It won't be long 'fore I'll be needin' help One of these days you know I've got to get in step The way I'm going baby I'll be needin' help One of these days I've got to go back home Sit out on my front porch and compose a poem One of these days you know I've got to go back home I'm gonna sit out on my front porch, rock away compose a poem
