The hands of time are hard to ignore
They're huffing and puffing like a wolf at the door
Your doctor's on wrong, don't you find that odd?
Your arm's too short to pick a fist fight with God
You got a chip on your shoulder that's the size of your boot
You're too mean to live and too bad to shoot
You better try love instead
Try love instead
'Cause one of these days you're gonna lie down dead
You better try love instead
ย
And when the choir sings, "Just come to walk with thee"
And they carry you down to the cemetery
Ain't none of your children gonna give a rip
And now you're leaving on a heavenly trip
See, Jesus, Jesus is a friend of mine
Your sweet chariot's a box of pine
If you make it past the clouds with your head poking through
You'll be standing on the shoulders of the folks that love you
You better try love instead
Try love instead
One of these days you're gonna lie down dead
You better try love instead
Try love instead
Try love instead
One of these days you're gonna lie down dead
You better try love instead
ย
It don't make no difference if you change your ways
It's up to you because I know that
One of these days
One of these days
One of these days
One of these days
You're gonna try love instead
Try love instead
One of these days, one of these old days
One of these days, one of these old days
Try love instead (Try love instead)
Try (Try love instead)
One of these days
And it won't be long, won't be long
One of these days you're gonna fall down dead
(Try love instead)
One of these days
One of these days
One of these days
(Try love instead)
