I was born in time of trouble
And my father was working so far away
And I saw him very little, to my misfortune
I asked my mother, why?
I remember what my mother said
Now I understand
'Cause nobody ask for no one
When you're living in a muddy lane
And she never showed his feelings
When my father died, working so far away
And nobody came to the interment, to my confusion
I asked my mother why?
I remember what my mother said
Now I understand
'Cause nobody ask for no one, honey
Living in a muddy lane
Living in a muddy lane
Living in a muddy lane
Living in a muddy lane
Living in a muddy lane
I remember what my mother said
Now I understand
'Cause nobody ask for no one, honey
Living in a muddy lane
After all this time I think that we all are no one
We all live in nowhere town
Is the same life in a palace, or in a piggery
Nobody asks for no one
If my mother could listen to me
Maybe I would tell her
Yes, nobody asks for me, mummy
Living in a lonely world
Living in a lonely world
Living in a muddy lane
Living in a lonely world
Living in a muddy lane
I remember what my mother said
Now I understand
'Cause nobody ask for no one, honey
Living in a muddy lane
