Lyrics:

May be an ambassador to England or France
Might like to gamble, you might like to dance
May be the heavyweight champion of the world
You may be a socialite with a long string of pearls

You're gonna have to serve somebody
You're gonna have to serve somebody
Oh, it may be the devil or it may be the Lord
You're gonna have to serve somebody

Might be a rock 'n' roll addict prancing on the stage
You might have drugs at your command, 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

You're gonna have to serve somebody
You're gonna have to serve somebody
Well, it may be the devil or it may be the Lord
You're gonna have to serve somebody

Serve someone

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 may be living in another country under another name

You're gonna have to serve somebody
You're gonna have to serve somebody
Well, it may be the devil or it may be the Lord
You're gonna have to serve somebody

Serve somebody
Serve somebody
Serve someone
Gonna have to serve somebody

You might like to eat caviar, you might like to eat bread
You may be sleeping on the floor, sleeping in a king-sized bed
You're gonna have to serve somebody

Serve someone
