Nobody Lyrics

When life seems full of clouds an' rain
And I am filled with naught but pain,
Who soothes my thumpin' bumpin' brain?
Nobody!

When winter comes with snow an' sleet
And me with hunger and cold feet
Who says, "Here's twenty-five cents, go ahead and get somethin' to eat"?
Nobody!

I ain't never done nothin' to nobody
I ain't never got nothin' from nobody, no time!
And until I get somethin' from somebody
I will never do nothing for nobody, no time!

When summer comes all cool and clear
And my friends seen 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 nothin' to nobody
I ain't never got nothin' from nobody, no time!
And until I get somethin' from somebody
I will never do nothing for nobody, no time!
