歌曲歌詞
I never had any reason
For ambition or drive
In fact I never have anybody
That cared if I'm alive
But then one day she came my way
And I heard a voice with in me say
Don't let her get away whatever you do
But I never thought that this could be
That she would ever look at me
Seriously
And that's why oh Lord Lord Lord
I got to be somebody
I'm down on my knees
Begging please please please please
I got to win her love for me
I grew upon the sidewalks
Got along the best I could
Mama worked all day long
And papa was no good
I never asked for much before
But here I am at Heaven's door
So help me please
Don't let her pass me by
Cause I would rather die than see
Her love turn into sympathy
For me
And that's why I'm oh Lord Lord Lord
I got to be somebody
I'm down on my knees
Begging please please please please
I got to win her love for me
Got to be a somebody
I got to be somebody
So tired of being a nobody
