I get up in the morning
Hear the work bell warning
Shuffle to my 9 to 5
I come home in the evening
I get that feeling
Lord, I start to come aliveNow I don't care about cool conversation (that's right)
I just don't have the time, noAll I want is the love my baby keeps my soul in line
One of these days I'm gonna rise up, singing with you
One of these days I'm gonna rise up, yes it's trueNow I found out about pain and doubtLong, long time ago
But she cured my blindness
With love and kindnessStays no matter where I goNow I heard people, all the people talking (that's right)
They just don't understand, no
There's no good reason to go on explaining when a woman's in love with her manOne of these days I'm gonna rise up, singing with you
One of these days I'm gonna rise up, yes it's trueAw, we'll go like thisOoh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, oohOh baby don't you leave me
Oh no I'll never leave you
I want you here by my side
Cause all I need is to go on living
You keep me satisfiedOne of these days I'm gonna rise up, singing with you
One of these days I'm gonna rise up, yes it's true
One of these days I'm gonna rise up, singing with you
One of these days I'm gonna rise up, yes it's trueOoh, ooh, ooh
