Lyrics

You may be ambassador to England or France You might 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 Yes indeed, you're gonna have to serve somebody Well it may be the devil It may be the Lord But you're gonna have to serve somebody You might be a rock 'n' roll addict prancing on the stage Money and drugs at your command, women in a cage You may be a businessman or some high-degreed thief They may call you doctor, they may call you chief But you're gonna have to serve somebody Yes you are, you're gonna have to serve somebody Well it may be the devil It may be the Lord But you're gonna have to serve somebody You may be a state trooper You might be a young Turk May be the head of some TV network You may be rich or poor You may be blind or lame May be livin' in another country under another name But you're gonna have to serve somebody Yes indeed, you're gonna have to serve somebody Well it may be the devil It may be the Lord But you're gonna have to serve somebody Might like to wear cotton Might like to wear silk Might like to drink whiskey You might like to drink milk You might like to eat caviar You might like to eat bread May be sleeping on the floor under a king size 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 It may be the Lord But you're gonna have to serve somebody (It may be the devil) (It may be the Lord) (But you're gonna have to serve somebody) (Serve somebody) It may be the devil It may be the Lord But you're gonna have to serve somebody (Serve somebody)
