I Am Somebody (part 1) Lyrics - Singles - Johnnie Taylor

I am somebody, yeah 

You are somebody, yeah 

A lawyer is somebody 

Though he loses every case that he pleads 

A doctor is still somebody 

Though he gives out the wrong remedy 

Now, I may not have shoes 

To put on my feet 

I may not have a [Incomprehensible] to eat 

Alright, now, I'll tell you I am somebody 

Every man and woman is somebody 

Though you're up in society 

Tell me where would you be 

Without everyday people like me

Old Martin was somebody 

Before he ever started march on Washington 

Old Bobby was somebody 

Before his campaign for President begun 

You may not have a place to lay your head 

The clothes on your back 

May be nothing but shreds 

But you are somebody 

Every man is somebody 

There's some good in every man 

Give him respect and give him a chance 

And surely, surely he'll understand
