One Of These Days Lyrics - Mark Wills

She worked in a laundry pressin' shirts and pants 

Eight hours a day at that iron she'd stand 

'bout every thirty minutes somebody said 

Man, it's hot in here 

She tied up her hair but she wouldn't cut it off 

'cause Robbie lee likes it better when it's lone 

And at night they'd meet at the cold spot 

And drink some beer 

And every mornin' when she'd clock in she'd say 

One of these days, I'm getting out of here 

Yeah one of these days, 'cause I'm too good for this place 

Now I don't mean that like it sounds 

But I'm not gonna be held down 

Things are gonna change 

One of these days 

One Friday she said, that's it, I'm quittin' 

We all thought that she was just kidding' 

When we came back from lunch she didn't 

And that was it 

Somebody said they'd seen her downtown 

Bags all packed steppin' on a greyhound 

Robbie lee watchin' his world come down around him 

I can't count the times I heard her say 

One of these days, I'm getting out of here 

Yeah one of these days, 'cause I'm too good for this place 

Now I don't mean that like it sounds 

But I'm not gonna be held down 

Things are gonna change 

One of these days 

That girl wasn't nobody's fool 

Bet she's workin' somewhere cool 

And I'm startin' to think 

One of these days, I'm getting out of here 

Yeah one of these days, 'cause I'm too good for this place 

Now I don't mean that like it sounds 

But I'm not gonna be held down 

Things are gonna change 

One of these days 

Yeah one of these days 

Yeah, one of these days
