verse 1
When life seems full of clouds and rain
And I am filled with naught but pain
Who soothes my thumpin', bumpin brain?
Nobody
verse 2
And when winter comes with snow and sleet
And me with hunger and cold feet
Who says, "Here's a quarter boy, now go and eat"
Nobody
I ain't never done nothin' to nobody
And I ain't never got nothin' from a nobody, no time
Until I get somethin' from somebody, sometime
Well, I don't intend to do nothin', for nobody, no time
Break
verse 3
Then when summer comes all cool and clear
And my good friends see me drawin' near
Who says, "Come on in here, man, and have a beer"?
Nobody
Break
verse 4
Last Christmas eve about daybreak
I was in that railroad wreck
Who was it hauled the engine off my neck?
Not a livin' soul
I ain't ever done nothin' to nobody
And I ain't never got nothin' from nobody no time
Until I get me somethin' from somebody sometime
Break
Well I've been thinkin' it out, and beyond a doubt
I ain't gonna do nothin' for nobody no time
