Gotta Serve Somebody

Lyrics

You may be an ambassador to England or France
 You may like to gamble, you might like to dance
 You may be the heavyweight champion of the world
 You might be a socialite with a long string of pearls
 But you're gonna have to serve somebody, yes indeed
 You're gonna have to serve somebody
 Well, it may be the Devil or it may be the Lord
 But you're gonna have to serve somebody
 Might be a rock 'n' roll addict prancing on the stage
 You might have drugs at your command, women in a cage
 You may be a businessman or some high-degree thief
 They may call you doctor or they may call you chief
 But you're gonna have to serve somebody, yes, you are
 You're gonna have to serve somebody (serve somebody)
 Well, it may be the Devil or it may be the Lord
 But you're gonna have to serve somebody (serve somebody)
 You may be a state trooper, you might be a young Turk
 You may be the head of some big TV network
 You may be rich or poor, you may be blind or lame
 You may be livin' in another country under another name
 But you're gonna have to serve somebody, yes, you arre
 You're gonna have to serve somebody (serve somebody)
 Well, it may be the Devil or it may be the Lord
 But you're gonna have to serve somebody (serve somebody)
 You may be a construction worker workin' on a home
 Might be livin' in a mansion, you might live in a dome
 You may own guns and you may even own tanks
 You may be somebody's landlord, you may even own banks
 But you're gonna have to serve somebody (serve somebody)
 Yes, you're gonna have to serve somebody (serve somebody)
 Well, it may be the Devil or it might be the Lord
 But you're gonna have to serve somebody (serve somebody)
 You may be a preacher preaching spiritual pride
 Maybe a city councilman takin' bribes on the side
 May be working in a barbershop, you may know how to cut hair
 You may be somebody's mistress, maybe somebody's heir
 But you're gonna have to serve somebody
 Yes, you're gonna have to serve somebody (serve somebody)
 Well, it may be the Devil or it may be the Lord
 But you're gonna have to serve somebody (serve somebody)
 Might like to wear cotton, might like to wear silk
 Might like to drink whiskey, might like to drink milk
 Might like to eat caviar, you might like to eat bread
 May be sleeping on the floor, sleepin' in a king-size bed
 But you're gonna have to serve somebody (serve somebody)
 Yes indeed, you're gonna have to serve somebody (serve somebody)
 Well, it may be the Devil or it may be the Lord
 But you're gonna have to serve somebody
 You may call me Terry, you may call me Timmy
 You may call me Bobby, you may call me Zimmy
 You may call me RJ, you may call me Ray
 You may call me anything, no matter what you say
 You're still gonna have to serve somebody (serve somebody)
 Yes, you're gonna have to serve somebody (serve somebody)
 Well, it may be the Devil and it may be the Lord
 But you're gonna have to serve somebody
