[Verse 1]
Now one of these days I'll wake up tired of the life I'm living and feel inspired
To get off my ass (To get off my ass)
And be on my way
One of these days I'll wake up steady and ready to go like Richard Petty
I'm gonna wake up and change my ways (I'm gonna wake up)
One of these days

[Chorus]
One of these days (One of these days)
I'm gonna find me a better way to live my life (To live my life)
And carry on without the strife
I know it won't come easy but believe me when I say
I'm gonna wake up and change my ways (I'm gonna wake up)
One of these days

[Verse 2]
One of these days I'm coming up to it
Gonna put my foot right down and do it
It's about damn time (It's about damn time)
I've made a change (I've made a change)
One of these days I'm bound for glory
And that's the moral of this old story
I'm gonna wake up and change my ways (I'm gonna wake up)
One of these days
[Chorus]
One of these days (One of these days)
I'm gonna find me a better way to live my life (To live my life)
And carry on without the strife
I know it won't come easy but believe me when I say
I'm gonna wake up and change my ways (I'm gonna wake up)
One of these days
One of these days (One of these days)
I'm gonna find me a better way to live my life (To live my life)
And carry on without the strife
I know it won't come easy but believe me when I say
I'm gonna wake up and change my ways (I'm gonna wake up)
One of these days

[Outro]
I'm gonna wake up and change my ways (I'm gonna wake up)
One of these days
