Bert Williams Nobody
When life seems full of clouds and rain
And I am full of nothin' and 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 ahead and get somethin'
To eat?"
Nobody
I ain't never done nothin' to nobody
I ain't never done nothin' to nobody, no time
So until I get somethin' from somebody sometime
I'll never do nothin' for nobody, no time
When summer comes all cool and clear
And my friends see me drawing near
Who says "Come in, have some 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?
Not a soul
I ain't never done nothin' to nobody
I ain't never done nothin' to nobody, no time
Until I get somethin' from somebody sometime
I'll never do nothin' for nobody, no time
