Somebody

I didn't take the warning

I really didn't care

I had already gone too far

To let them steal my share

So, like a fool I took 'em on

And as my anger cool

I realized I could take all mine

And skip off with theirs, too

I know I must be crazy

I'm bound to wake up dead

Somebody, somebody

Waitin' outside my back door

Somebody, somebody

Tryin' to even up the score

I figured I should lay real low

And stayed away from town

I covered up all my moves

So, it'd be hard to track me down

But I started gettin' shaky

And I paced around the floor

Hiding out all alone

I couldn't take much more

Just sitting 'round here waitin'

Is drivin' me up the wall

Somebody, somebody

Waitin' outside my back door

Somebody, somebody

Tryin' to even up the score

So, I called up my old friend Marlene

Who was lookin' for some fun

I got drunk and like a fool

I told her, what I'd done

I heard them knockin' at my door

They got to me at last

It don't take much to figure out

How they'd found me out so fast

And when I looked for my Marlene

I saw that she was gone

Somebody, somebody

Waitin' outside my back door

Somebody somebody

Tryin' to even up the score

Somebody, somebody

Waitin' outside my back door

Somebody, somebody

Tryin' to even up the score

Somebody, somebody

Waitin' outside my back door

Somebody, somebody

Tryin' to even up the score
