| In 1950 when I was born | |
| Papa couldn't afford to buy us much | |
| He said, ‽Be proud of what you are | |
| There's something special 'bout people like us†| |
| People like us | |
| Who will answer the telephone | |
| People like us | |
| Growing as big as a house | |
| People like us | |
| Gonna make it because | |
| We don't want freedom | |
| We don't want justice | |
| We just want someone to love | |
| Someone to love | |
| I was called upon in the 3rd grade class | |
| I gave my answer and it caused a fuss | |
| I'm not the same as everyone else | |
| And times were hard for people like us | |
| People like us | |
| Who will answer the telephone | |
| People like us | |
| Growing big as a house | |
| People like us | |
| Gonna make it because | |
| We don't want freedom | |
| We don't want justice | |
| We just want someone to love | |
| Someone to love, wait now | |
| What good is freedom? | |
| God laughs at people like us | |
| I see it coming | |
| Like a light coming down from above | |
| The clouds roll by and the moon comes up | |
| How long must we live in the heat of the sun | |
| Millions of people are waitin' on love | |
| And this is a song about people like us | |
| People like us | |
| Who will answer the telephone | |
| People like us | |
| Growing big as a house | |
| People like us | |
| Gonna make it because | |
| We don't want freedom | |
| We don't want justice | |
| We just want someone to love | |
| Someone to love | |
| Someone to love | |
| Someone to love |
| In 1950 when I was born | |
