Lyrics
I'm Gonna Be Somebody
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Bobby played his guitar on the hard side of town
Where it's hard for a poor boy to find the money
He had dedication, he had the heart and soul
Somehow knew he was born to play
They said get a real job support your family
Cause there's no future on the road your takin'
But he never said a word, the dreamer just kept on
Late at night you could hear him sing
I'm gonna be somebody, one of these days I'm gonna break these chains
I'm gonna be somebody, someday, you can bet your hard earned dollar I will
Bobby played his hometown, one full moon August night
He heard a voice out in the front row
It's a sandy-haired Texas boy with same ole hungry eyes
Looked up at Bobby and said
I'm gonna be somebody, one of these days I'm gonna break these chains
I'm gonna be somebody, someday, you can bet your hard earned dollar I will
You can bet your hard earned dollar I will
