Lyrics

One, two, three
 ♪
 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 may be a socialite with a long string of pearls
 But you're gonna have to serve somebody, oh yes you are
 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
 Well, you may be a rock'n' roll adict prancing around the stage
 You may have drugs at your commands and women in a cage
 You may be a business man or some high degree thief
 They may call you doctor or they may call you chief
 But you're gonna have to serve somebody, oh yeah
 He 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
 Well, you may be a state trooper, you may 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 living in another country under another name
 But you're gonna have to serve somebody, oh yeah
 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
 ♪
 You may be a construction worker working on a home
 You may live in a mansion, you may livein' in a dome
 You may have own guns and might own tanks
 Maybe somebody's landlord, you might even own banks
 But you're gonna have to serve somebody, yes you are
 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
 Or you may be a preacher for your spiritual pride
 You may be a city councilman taking bribes on the side
 You may be working in a barbershop and know how to cut hair
 You may be somebody's mistress, you may be somebody's heir
 But you're gonna have to serve somebody, oh yeah
 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
 You may like to wear cotton, might like to wear silk
 Might like to drink whiskey, might like to drink milk
 You maybe eating caviar or you maybe eat bread
 You may be sleeping on the ground or sleeping in a king-sized bed
 But you're gonna have to serve somebody, yes you are
 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
