Lyrics
The congregation parted like the Red Sea
When that old drunk stumbled in down the aisle and took a seat
Right in the middle of "Amazing Grace"
He could feel the judgment they were passing
Thought to himself, "Ain't that just like a bunch of Baptists?"
He'd rather be on the street than in this place
With tears on his face
You'd think somebody would put their arm around him
You'd think somebody would hit a knee
Pull him in, say a prayer
That's what I'm talking 'bout right there
You'd think somebody would practice what they're preaching
Well, I wonder who that somebody could be
Probably somebody like me
He's got problems nobody wants a part of
When he got up and slipped out, nobody stood up
They don't want to make a scene
They let him walk out of there
Ooh, without a prayer
You'd think somebody would do something different
You'd think somebody would go against the grain
Be the one to run him down
Bring him back and turn him around
You'd think somebody would want to make a difference
Well, I wonder who that somebody could be
Probably somebody like me
Oh, can I get a witness?
Somebody, somebody, ooh
Ooh, you'd think somebody would put their arm around him
You'd think somebody would hit a knee
Pull him in, say a prayer
You'd think somebody would want to make a difference
Well, I wonder who that somebody could be
Probably somebody like me
Somebody, somebody
I wonder who that somebody could be
Probably somebody like me
Somebody like me
