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 backpay it back
one of these days.
One of these days I m gonna pay it backpay it back
one of these days.
And then they told me I could be somebody
if I didn t 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 outI didn t know what to do.
If I could fool myselfthen maybe I d fool you too.
chorus
I wouldn t say that I was raised on romance.
Let s 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 must ve lied to me.
chorus.
