I've been shot up and shook down
I've been turned away and turned around
But nobody to call my own
In this mean old world alone
Many, many nights I've cried
Somebody was on my side
Down in my soul I knew
Some way I knew I'd get through
Looking back now I see somebody was watching over me
I've been locked up and locked out
Been used and abused
Life was so confused, I lived in a state of depression
Something saved me from my obsession
My friend was put to test
My was put to rest
Looking back now I see somebody was watching over me
Somebody was a watching, somebody was a watching over me
Somebody was a watching, somebody was a watching over me
Now my bad times is better than my good times use to be
There was a time when, peace I could not find
Nothing to call my own
No job, no car, no home
Staying in a 1 room shack
All I had was the on my back
Each day my only plan, half a bottle in my hand
Looking back now I see somebody was watching over me
Somebody was a watching, somebody was a watching over me
Somebody was a watching, somebody was a watching over me
Now my bad times is better than my good times use to be
Now my bad times is better than my good times use to be
