I used to be somebody but now I am somebody else
2x
Who I might be tomorrow is anybody's guess

What was thought to be the rat race turned out the wrong way after all
2x
what I took to be the high road was only leadin' to a fall

I used to be a preacher, with women, fame, and wealth
2x
From a mighty congregation, to talking to myself

I was cleared of all the charges with money, women and my health
2x
Now that I'm a brand-new man, you belong with someone else

I used to be somebody but now I am somebody else
2x
Who I'll be tomorrow is anybody's guess
