When life seems full of clouds an’ rainAnd 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 ah, here’s two bits, go an’ eat!Nobody . . .I ain’t never done nothin’ to nobody,I ain’t never got nothin’ from nobody, no time!And ’till I get somethin’ from somebody, sometime,I don’t intend to do nothin’ for nobody, no time!When I try hard an’ scheme an’ plan,To look as good as good as I can,Who says ah, look at that handsome man!Nobody . . .When all day long things go amiss,And I go home to find some bliss,Who hands to me a glowin’ kiss? 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, sometime,I don’t intend to do nothin’ for nobody, no time!Nobody, no time!
