Somebody on Your Side Lyrics

You gonna need somebody on your side
You gonna need somebody on your side
You got wind in your sail today
It'll one day go away
You gonna need somebody on your side

You gonna need somebody on your road
You're gonna need someone to chair your load
Cause your youth and vigor flees
Years gon' bend you by degrees
You're gonna need somebody on your side

You're gonna need somebody for your fun
Sing this song when dark clouds cover the sun
You got friends in abundance now
Time's gon' break that link somehow
You're gonna need somebody on your side

When you're waiting on a train that never comes - can't you see it?
That right next to you stands the fella who's been standing there
All along

You gonna need somebody on your side
You gonna need somebody on your side
You got wind in your sail today
It'll one day go away
You gonna need somebody on your side (and it might be me)
You gonna need somebody on your side (can I vote for myself)
You gonna need somebody on your side
