One of these days, you're gonna need somebody
One of these days, darlin'
You're gonna be hurtin' like me
Don't matter how much you try to apologize
You're gonna need somebody
Gonna want somebody, baby
Somebody to dry your eyes

It won't be me
Oh, no, no-no-no, no-no-no, it won't be me
It won't be me
It won't be me

One of these days
You're gonna be alone
Hit it
One of these days darlin'
You're gonna be so blue
You're gonna try to smile
But the hurt won't let you
One of these days, baby
You'll need somebody to be true

It won't be me
Do you hear me?
No, no, no, no, no, it won't be me
It won't be me
It won't be me
You came, you saw, girl, conquered me
I was bound by the same love
And oh, I worked hard every day
Gave you all my hard earned pay
Go have your way
Girl, the time is gonna come for you someday

One of these days, you're gonna want someone
Who don't want you
One of these days, looka here
You'll be in misery
Someday you'll take a fall I bet you
You'll need, need

It won't be me, looka here
It won't be Otis Redding
It won't be, won't be Uncle Charlie
To sing sweet soul music
It won't be, Wicked Pickett
In the Midnight Hour
It won't be, you have to look at McAllister, so think
It won't be Bobby Byrd, said he's the best for nobody
AHH...
