One of These Mornings - Ricky Nelson

One of These Mornings - Ricky Nelson
1:54
Ricky Sings Again, 1959
Written by Dorsey Burnette

More 1950s rock 'n' roll than rockabilly — a sort of pop-abilly maybe — this song starts off with the narrator averring that one day he'll go find a gal who'll love him.  They'll have a great time under the moon and all that.  But then, suddenly he's talking about leaving again!  "I done told my gal what I'm gonna do / I'm gonna leave on a one way track / Yes one of these mornings and I can't be comin' back."  Well, I call that pretty fickle, Ricky Nelson!
