| (ian hunter) | |
| When i was just sixteen - i stood waiting for a dream - | |
| At barker street bus station every night | |
| When i tried to get it on - she just looked at me with scorn - my courage | |
| Turned to dust and i took flight | |
| For those looks they seemed to say | |
| You ain't nuthin' - go away | |
| You're just a face in the crowd so i went home and i vowed | |
| I'm gonna be somebody - someday | |
| Her name was irene wilde - oh such beauty for a child | |
| When she started dating boys - i nearly died | |
| For i could not barely stand to see someone hold her hand | |
| I felt i had to crawl away and hide | |
| In my mother's living room i composed so many tunes | |
| All the same - just a frame - for her name, and just to say | |
| Gonna be somebody - someday | |
| Wild as your name i soon left that country town | |
| I been around, seen some fame, seen some ups and seen some downs | |
| Smile through your shock when you hear your name aloud | |
| It's that face in the crowd - didn't dig it - much too proud... | |
| When i was just sixteen i stood waiting for a dream | |
| A barker street bus station non affair | |
| At the time it seemed so sad, but it did not turn out bad | |
| If you hadn't messed me up i'd still be there | |
| And i think most folks agree, a little put-down makes them see | |
| They ain't no chain - just a link and that's why you made me think | |
| Gonna be somebody - be somebody - be somebody - someday |
