Nobody

When life seems full of clouds and rain

And I am filled with naught but pain

Who soothes my thumping, bumping brain?

Nobody

When winter comes with snow and sleet

And me with hunger and cold feet

Who says, "Here's twenty-five cents

Go on, get something to eat?"

Nobody

I ain't never done nothing to nobody

I ain't never got nothing from nobody, no time

And until I get something from somebody

I will never do nothing for nobody, no time

When summer comes, all cool and clear

And my friends see me drawing near

Who says "Come on, let's have a beer?"

Nobody

When I was in that railroad wreck

And thought I'd cashed in my last check

Who took the engine off my neck?

Nobody

I ain't never done nothing to nobody

I ain't never got nothing from nobody, no time

And until I get something from somebody

I will never do nothing for nobody, no time
