Stop thief you're gonna come to grief

If you don't take a little more care

You're gonna get more than the family plan

From this one shoestring affair

I may be crazy but I can't contemplate

Being trapped between the doctor and the magistrate

One of these days I'm gonna pay it back pay it back

One of these days

One of these days I'm gonna pay it back pay it back

One of these days

And then they told me I could be somebody

If I didnt let too much get in my way

And I tried so hard just to be myself

But I keep on fading away

Until the lights went out I didnt know what to do

If I could fool myself then maybe Id fool you too

One of these days I'm gonna pay it back pay it back

One of these days

One of these days I'm gonna pay it back pay it back

One of these days

I wouldn't say that I was raised on romance

Lets not get stuck in the past

I love you more than everything in the world

I don't expect that will last

They told me everything was guaranteed

Somebody somewhere mustve lied to me

One of these days I'm gonna pay it back pay it back

One of these days

One of these days I'm gonna pay it back pay it back

One of these days

One of these days I'm gonna pay it back pay it back

One of these days

One of these days I'm gonna pay it back pay it back

One of these days
