Lyrics

[00:00.00] High Valley - Somebody Like Me
[00:00.84]
[00:16.48] That congregation parted like the red sea
[00:22.08] When that old drunk stumbled in down the aisle and took a seat
[00:28.31] Right in the middle of amazing grace
[00:37.86] He could feel the judgment they were passing
[00:42.78] Thought to himself, ain't that just like a bunch of Baptists
[00:49.07] He'd rather be on the street than in this place, with tears on his face
[00:57.38]
[00:57.87] You'd think somebody would put their arm around him
[01:02.55] You'd think somebody would hit a knee
[01:08.68] Pull him in say a prayer
[01:11.10] You think somebody would practice what they're preaching
[01:19.16] I wonder who that somebody might be
[01:24.08] Probably somebody like me
[01:30.19]
[01:34.33] Well he's got problems nobody wants a part of
[01:39.62] When he got up and slipped out nobody stood up
[01:44.57] They don't wanna make a scene so they let him walk out of there
[01:52.01] Without a prayer
[01:54.03]
[01:54.51] You'd think somebody would do something different
[01:59.37] You'd think somebody would go against the grain
[02:04.70] Be the one to run him down, bring him back and turn him around
[02:10.20] You think somebody would wanna make a difference
[02:16.00] I wonder who that somebody might be
[02:20.90] Probably somebody like me
[02:39.67]
[02:40.73] You'd think somebody would put their arm around him
[02:45.86] You'd think somebody would hit a knee
[02:51.85] Pull him in say a prayer
[02:58.88] You think somebody would wanna make a difference
[03:04.66] I wonder who that somebody might be
[03:09.88] Probably somebody like me
[03:15.86] Somebody, somebody, somebody...
[04:05.85]
