The congregation parted like the Red Sea
When that old drunk stumbled in down the aisle
And took a seat
Right in the middle of Amazing Grace He could feel the judgment they were passing
Thought to himself "Ain't that just how some folks acting"
He'd rather be on the street than in this place
And with tears on his face You'd think somebody would put their arm around him
You'd think somebody would hit a knee
Pull him in, say a prayer
That's what I'm talking 'bout right there You'd think somebody would practice what they're preachin'
Well, I wonder who that somebody could be
Prob'ly somebody like me Well, he's got problems nobody wants a part of
When he got up and slipped out nobody stood up
They don't wanna make a scene
So they let him walk outta there without a prayer You'd think somebody would do something different
You'd think somebody would go against the grain
Be the one to run him down
Bring him back and turn him around You'd think somebody would wanna make a difference
Well, well I wonder who that somebody could be
Prob'ly somebody like me Oh can I get a witness
Oh yeah You'd think somebody would put their arm around him
You'd think somebody would hit a knee now
Pull him in, say a prayer yeah You'd think somebody would put their arm around him
You'd think somebody would hit a knee
Pull him in, say a prayer
That's what I'm talking 'bout right there You'd think somebody would wanna make a difference
Well, I wonder who that somebody could be
Prob'ly somebody like me
