Bob Dylan – Gotta Serve Somebody Lyrics
Artist: Bob Dylan
Song: Gotta Serve Somebody
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, ah 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
You may be a rock ’n’ roll addict prancing on the stage
You may have drugs at your command and 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, 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 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 might be living in another country under another name
But you’re gonna have to serve somebody, ah 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 be livin’ in a dome
You may own guns and might own tanks
You 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
You might be a preacher full of spiritual pride
You may be a city councilman taking bribes on the side
You may be workin’ in a barbershop and know how to cut hair
You may be somebody’s mistress, may be somebody’s heir
But you’re gonna have to serve somebody, ah 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 might like to wear cotton, might like to wear silk
Might like to drink whiskey, might like to drink milk
You may be eatin’ caviar, you may be eatin’ bread
You may be sleeping on the ground or sleeping in a king-sized bed
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
