Travis Tritt - I'm Gonna Be Somebody lyrics

Bobby played his guitar on the harder side of town Where it's hard for a poor boy to find the money He had dedication, he had the heart and soul Somehow knew he was born to play People say get a real job support your family 'Cause there's no future on the road your takin' But he never said a word, the dreamer just kept on Late at night you could hear him say, he'd say I'm gonna be somebody One of these days I'm gonna break these chains I'm gonna be somebody someday You can bet your hard-earned dollar I will The road was a struggle, took him ten years to the top And now he's number one on the stage and the radio Still he can't believe how people come from miles around When it seems like only yesterday when he would say I'm gonna be somebody One of these days I'm gonna break these chains I'm gonna be somebody someday You can bet your hard-earned dollar I will, yeah, yeah, yeah Bobby played his hometown, one full moon August night When He heard a voice in the front row singing It was a sandy-haired river boy with same ol' hungry eyes He looked up at Bobby and said Mmm, I'm gonna be somebody One of these days I'm gonna break these chains And I'm gonna be somebody someday You can bet your hard-earned dollar I will You know I will, yeah, yeah I'm gonna be somebody One of these days I'm gonna break these chains I'm gonna be somebody someday You can bet your hard-earned dollar I will, oh yeah You can bet your hard-earned dollar I will
