I been shot up and shipped down,
|
I've been turned away and turned around,
|
Nobody to call my own,
|
In this mean old world alone,
|
Many, many nights I cried,
|
Somebody was all the time,
|
Down in my soul I knew,
|
Some way I'd get through
|
Looking back now I see,
|
Somebody was watching over me,
|
Somebody was watching (Backing Singers),
|
Somebody was watching (Backing Singers),
|
I've been locked up and locked down,
|
I've been used and abused,
|
Didn't know if I, was uptown or downtown,
|
You know my life was so confused,
|
Living in a state of depression,
|
Something saved me from my obsession,
|
My strength was put to test,
|
My weakness put to rest,
|
Looking back now I see,
|
Somebody was watching over me,
|
Somebody was watching (Backing Singers),
|
Somebody was watching (Backing Singers),
|
Somebody was watching,
|
Somebody was watching over me,
|
Somebody was watching (Backing Singers),
|
Somebody was watching (Backing Singers),
|
Somebody was watching,
|
Somebody was watching over me,
|
Somebody was watching (Backing Singers),
|
Somebody was watching (Backing Singers),
|
Now my bad time is better than my good time used to be,
|
Somebody was watching (Backing Singers),
|
Somebody was watching (Backing Singers),
|
(Solo)
|
Somebody was watching (Backing Singers),
|
Somebody was watching(Backing Singers),
|
There was a time when peace I could not find,
|
Nothing to call my own,
|
No job, no car no home,
|
Living in a one room shack,
|
All I had was the clothes on my back,
|
Each day my only thing,
|
Have a bottle in my hand,
|
Looking back now I see,
|
Somebody was watching over me,
|
Somebody was watching (Backing Singers),
|
Somebody was watching (Backing Singers),
|
Somebody was watching,
|
Somebody was watching over me,
|
Somebody was watching (Backing Singers),
|
Somebody was watching (Backing Singers),
|
Somebody was watching,
|
Somebody was watching over me,
|
Somebody was watching (Backing Singers),
|
Somebody was watching (Backing Singers),
|
Now my bad time is better than my good time used to be,
|
Somebody was watching (Backing Singers),
|
Somebody was watching over me (Backing Singers),
|
Somebody was watching (Backing Singers),
|
Somebody was watching (Backing Singers),
|
Now my bad time is better than my good time used to be,
|
Somebody was watching (Backing Singers),
|
Somebody was watching over me (Backing Singers) |
