The song is an emotional confession of misconnects and apologies from the singer to a young woman he regrets having mistreated.

Background
According to Jonathan Singer, it was Paul Griffin who played the piano section on "One of Us Must Know (Sooner or Later)".[3]
Musically, the track is typical of the album: a treble single coil guitar adds a base to the song with the acoustic and bass while organs and pianos take the lead in forming the song. Jazz style drumming is used effectively. According to Rolling Stone, it took nine hours and 24 takes to complete the song.[4]
Reception
Cash Box described the single as a "raunchy, low-down romantic lament essayed with plenty of feeling."[5]
Other versions
The organ part varied on the Blonde On Blonde album depending on whether it was the mono or stereo mix. An outtake of the song appeared on The Bootleg Series Vol. 12: The Cutting Edge 1965–1966, while the deluxe version of the album included multiple other versions of the song. According to Dylan's official website, as of 2018 Dylan has performed "One of Us Must Know" 60 times in concert, with all performances occurring between 1976 and 1997.[1]
Covers
English singer-songwriter Mick Hucknall covered the song on the 2012 charity compilation album Chimes of Freedom: The Songs of Bob Dylan Honoring 50 Years of Amnesty International. Old Crow Medicine Show covered the song on their live Dylan tribute album, 50 Years of Blonde on Blonde.[6]
