Johnny Cash dedicated a song to Nobody in one of his American albums. All I can say is Nobody gets sure gets around.
"Nobody"
When life seems full Of clouds and rain And I'm full Of nothin' but pain Who soothes my thumpin', bumpin' brain? Nobody
When Wintertime comes With its snow and sleet And me with hunger And cold feet Who says "Here's two bits, go and eat"? Nobody
Well, I ain't never done nothin' to nobody I ain't never got nothin' from nobody, no time And until I get something from somebody, sometime I don't intend to do nothin' for nobody, no time
When Summertime comes All warm and clear And my friends see me Drawin' near Who says "come on in and have a beer"? Nobody
Well one time when things was Lookin' bright I started to whittlin' on a stick one night Who said "Hey! That's dynamite!"? Nobody
Mmmm, I ain't never done nothin' to nobody I ain't never got nothin' from nobody, no time And until I get something from somebody, sometime I don't intend to do nothin' for nobody, no time
I ain't never done nothin' to nobody I ain't never got nothin' from nobody, no time And until I get something from somebody, sometime I don't intend to do nothin' for nobody, no time
What's funny is that, despite the campaign promises that Nobody keeps, people will still vote for Anybody...
ReplyDeleteIt would be nice for Somebody to come along and really work for the folks they're supposed to be serving. Somebody good.
