Glory glory, hallelujah
Same old story, different tune, though
Did I go blind? Was my rhyme just
A stone in my shoe?
There’s a hymn that’s never-ending
River, river, we cross so many
Some dig ditches, for others' pennies
We break our backs and still lack
The one thing that could save us
There’s a hymn and though it’s fleeting
It bears repeating:
Everybody needs somebody
Everybody needs somebody
Everybody loves somebody
Brother, brother, know I love you
But how I say it, that’s my problem
One little song that I knew all along
Can move a mountain
It’s a hymn that’s never-ending
Are the rules unbending?
Everybody needs somebody
Everybody needs somebody
Everybody loves somebody
Everybody needs somebody
Everybody needs somebody
Everybody loves somebody
Everybody needs somebody
Everybody needs somebody
Everybody loves somebody
Everybody needs somebody
Everybody needs somebody
Everybody loves somebody
