""I'm Gonna Be Somebody" by Travis Tritt

 

Bobby played his guitar on the harder side of town,

Where it’s hard for a poor boy to find any money.

He had dedication. He had the heart and soul.

Somehow he knew he was born to play.

People said, "Get a real job, support your family

‘Cause there’s no future in the road you’re taking."

He never said a word; the dreamer just kept on.

Late at night, you could hear him 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.
