May be it's luck?What is luck? How could this be luck? No ones- luck could be this bad. May be it's fate,
21
may be it's time. One of these days I'll find a way. I'll make it
26
to the top. Leave 'em all back in the dust.

One of these days, some one will say: "That boy w ill ne ver stop." That day's gon na be
37
one of these days. Don't un der stand it,

it is' nt fair. Ev'ry timeI try to prove my self re sults just aren't there. I feel like a mount ain climb er

with out the peak. My sis ter laughs at me, says I'm odd. My mom and pop think I'm a
52
pun ish ment from God. I get looks from my neigh bors that seem to say: "There goes that freak."
57
Some times I wish, no I don't,yes I do, I wish that some how I'd been born dumb. But then I feel
62
that some thing may change One of these days I'll find a way
