One of These Nights (song)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

"One of These Nights" is a song by the American rock band Eagles. It is the title track off of their One of These Nights album. It, along with the album, sky-rocketed up to the number one position in the Billboard Hot 100 charts. This song was released in 1975.

According to songwriter Glenn Frey, the song is about putting things off. "We've all said, 'one of these nights I'm gonna do something -- get that girl, make that money, find that house. We all have our dreams - a vision we hope will come true someday. When that 'someday' will come is up to each of us."

[edit] Quotes

"I've been searching for the daughter Of the devil himself

I've been searching for an angel in white

I've been waiting for a woman who's a little of both

And I can feel her but she's nowhere In sight..."
