I'M SOMEBODY'S SOMEBODY NOW
(Abner Silver / Howard Johnson / Al Sherman)


Annette Hanshaw & Her Four Instrumental Stars - 1927





Because I'm somebody's somebody
I got some somebody
Some certain somebody now

Once I was nobody's nobody
Till I met some somebody
Nobody's loved me somwhow

Just what he's got, I don't know
But it drives me insane
It's not his style or his smile
Well, I just can't explain

Ain't got much brain or much wit
But I claim he's got it
'Cause I'm somebody's somebody now


** The Four Instrumental Stars were Joe Venuti (violin), 
Eddie Lang (guitar), Adrian Rollini (bass sax) and Vic Berton (drums).
