SOME OF THESE DAYS - EDDIE PEABODY (sung by the spider)
WISE FLIES (TALKARTOONS) 1930 Some Of These Days is a jazz standard written in 1910 by ragtime hitmaker Shelton Brooks. The Canadian-born African-American composer was a well-known vaudevillian, and he wrote some of the biggest hits of the early 1900's. Some Of These Days was his first hit song, and it became a signature song for Sophie Tucker - who was one of the first to record it. She had recorded the song for the first time in 1911, and she re-recorded the song numerous times on following years. She also performed the song in several movies, including in the 1929 film Honky Tonk. In 1930, Some Of These Days was featured in the Talkertoon short Wise Flies, where it is sung by a villainous spider. The film uses a 1929 recording of the song by Eddie Peabody - a vaudeville star, instrument developer, and, at the time, the most famous banjo player in America. The song continues to be performed and recorded by many, and it has appeared prominently in movies and television. Cab Calloway's 1930 recording of the song appears in the 1980 cult classic Forbidden Zone, where it is lip synced by Oingo Boingo's Gene Cunningham

SOME OF THESE DAYS
Some of these days
You'll miss your honey
Some of these days
You'll feel so lonely
You'll miss my hugging
You'll miss my kisses
You'll miss me, honey
When you go away
I feel so lonely
Just for you only
For you know, honey
You've had your way
And when you leave me
I know you'll grieve me
You'll miss your little honey
Some of these days
Some of these days
You'll miss your honey
Some of these days
You'll feel so lonely
You'll miss my hugging
You'll miss my kisses
You'll miss me, honey
When you go away
I feel so lonely
Just for you only
For you know, honey
You've had your way
And when you leave me
I know you'll grieve me
You'll miss your little honey
Some of these days
