lyrics

One of these days they might find me
lying face down in a ditch
you’ll never know what an angel will bring you
you’ll never know what the plan is
Don’t sell me up the river, don’t tell me that I’m through

One of these days I might finally make it
then I’ll mail you a “told you so”
you don’t have to follow your feelings
sometimes you just gotta let go
Don’t sell me up the river, don’t tell me that I’m through
Hey you’ll never find me, hey and you’ll never win

One of these days I’ll get lazy
leave a breadcrumb for the fools
one of these days I’ll get lonely
Try to get too close to you
Don’t sell me up the river, don’t tell me that I’m through
Hey you’ll never find me, hey and you’ll never win

And I feel like I finally found you
and I feel like I finally know you
and I feel like a son never runs
if he runs then he’s done
Hey you’ll never find me, hey but you’ll never win
