Some of these days
You’re gonna miss your Donna
Some of these days
You’re gonna feel so lonely
You’ll miss my huggin’
You’ll miss my kissin’
You’ll miss me honey
When you’re far away

You’re gonna be so lonely
For me only
Cause you know daddy
You had you way
And if I leave you
You know it’s gonna grieve you
You’re gonna miss your sweet lovin’ Donna
Some of these days

And if I leave you
You know it’s gonna grieve you
You’re gonna miss your sweet little Donna
Some of these days

Hey honey call me when you got time
Know what I mean…
