Pops Staples - Somebody Was Watching lyrics

I been shot up and shipped down, I've been turned away and turned around, Nobody to call my own, In this mean old world alone, Many, many nights I cried, Somebody was all the time, Down in my soul I knew, Some way I'd get through Looking back now I see, Somebody was watching over me, (Somebody was a-watching), (Somebody was a-watching), I've been locked up and locked out, I've been used and abused, Didn't know if I, was uptown or downtown, You know my life was so confused, Living in a state of depression, Something saved me from my obsession, My strength was put to test, My weakness put to rest, Looking back now I see, Somebody was watching over me, (Somebody was a-watching), (Somebody was a-watching), Somebody was watching, Somebody was watching over me, (Somebody was a-watching), (Somebody was a-watching), Somebody was watching, Somebody was watching over me, (Somebody was a-watching), (Somebody was a-watching), Now my bad time is better than my good time used to be, (Somebody was a-watching), (Somebody was a-watching), (Somebody was a-watching), (Somebody was a-watching), There was a time when peace I could not find, Nothing to call my own, No job, no car no home, Slaving in a one room shack, All I had were the clothes on my back, Each day my only plan: Have a bottle in my hand, Looking back now I see, Somebody was watching over me, (Somebody was a-watching), (Somebody was a-watching), Somebody was watching, Somebody was watching over me, (Somebody was a-watching), (Somebody was a-watching), Somebody was watching, Somebody was watching over me, (Somebody was a-watching), (Somebody was a-watching), Now my bad time is better than my good time used to be, (Somebody was a-watching), (Somebody was a-watching), (Somebody was a-watching), (Somebody was a-watching), Now my bad time is better than my good time used to be, (Somebody was a-watching), (Somebody was a-watching over me)
