High Valley - Somebody Like Me lyrics

rate me

That congregation parted like the red sea

When that old drunk stumbled in down the aisle and took seat

Right in the middle of amazing grace

He could feel the judgment that 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

You think somebody would practice what they're preaching

I wonder who that somebody might be

Probably somebody like me

Well 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 so they let him walk out of there

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 think somebody would want to make a difference

I wonder who that somebody might be

Probably somebody like me
