One of These Days

One of these days,

I'm gonna sit down

and write a long letter

To all the good friends I've known

And I'm gonna try

And thank them all

for the good times together.

Though so apart we've grown.

One of these days,

I'm gonna sit down

and write a long letter

To all the good friends I've known

One of these days,

one of these days,

one of these days,

And it won't be long, it won't be long.

And I'm gonna thank,

That old country fiddler

And all those rough boys

Who play that rock 'n' roll

I never tried to burn any bridges

Though I know I let some good things go.

One of these days,

I'm gonna sit down

and write a long letter

To all the good friends I've known

One of these days,

one of these days,

one of these days,

And it won't be long, it won't be long.

From down in L.A.

All the way to Nashville,

From New York City

To my Canadian prairie home

My friends are scattered

Like leaves from an old maple.

Some are weak, some are strong.

One of these days,

I'm gonna sit down

and write a long letter

To all the good friends I've known

One of these days,

one of these days,

one of these days,

And it won't be long, it won't be long.

One of these days,

one of these days,

one of these days,

And it won't be long, it won't be long.
