Give us this day,
Play what you play,
Be sure to mean what you say…
Something for somebody.

Humbled before and by time,
by rhythm and rhyme,
the weight of the world in mind…
something for somebody.

The words that one speaks,
Emotions entreat,
To repeat and left to retreat…
Something for somebody.

Not merely a sound,
Just bounding around,
Eternity abound,
But something the heart wraps around…
Something for somebody.

Can’t hold in your hand,
But it’s part of the plan,
Can build up or cut down a man…
Something for somebody.

The wonders it gives,
Relates how you live…
Something for somebody.

And who will remember the song,
And sing and play on,
And speak of you after you’re gone…
Something for somebody…
Something for somebody…
