Way down here on these dead end streets
People live in doubt and fear
And it kept them down for oh so long
Now their time is getting near
I don't know where
I don't know how
I don't know when
But I'll tell you right now
[Chorus:]
One of these days you'll cross that line
The people gonna take you by surprise
The're gonna look their leaders in the eye (yeah)
One of these days you'll cross that line
The people gonna think with their own minds
They're gonna leave the system far behind (yeah)
How many of us spend our lives
On the outside lookin in
It seems they got us all convinced
That were never goin, never going to win
I don't know where
I don't know how
I don't know when
But I tell you right now
[Chorus:]
One of these days you'll cross that line
The people gonna take you by surprise
The're gonna look their leaders in the eye (yeah)
One of these days you'll cross that line
The people gonna think with their own minds
They're gonna leave the system far behind (yeah)
Do you really think we will ever stop, looking for a brighter day
While it looks today like we are on top
But it can never stay that way
[Chorus:]
One of these days
One of these days
One of these days
One of these days
One of these days
One of these days
One of these days
(yeah)
(yeah)
