Lyrics of Ain't Got No; I Got Life by Nina Simone
verse
Ain't got no home
Ain't got no shoes
Ain't got no money
Ain't got no class
verse
Ain't got no friends
Ain't got no schooling
Ain't got no work
I ain't got no job
Ain't got no mind
verse
I ain't got no father
Ain't got no mother
Ain't got no children
Ain't got no faith
verse
Ain't got no Earth
Ain't got no water
Ain't got no ticket
Ain't got no token
Ain't got no love
bridge
Then what have I got
Why am I alive anyway?
Yeah, what have I got
Nobody can take away
verse
I got my hair, got my head
Got my brains, got my ears
Got my eyes, got my nose
Got my mouth
I got my smile
verse
I got my tongue, got my chin
Got my neck, got my boobies
Got my heart, got my soul
Got my back
I got my sex
verse
I got my arms, got my hands
Got my fingers, got my legs
Got my feet, got my toes
Got my liver
Got my blood
verse
I've got life
I've got lives
I've got headaches, and toothaches
And bad times too like you
verse
I got my hair, got my head
Got my brains, got my ears
Got my eyes, got my nose
Got my mouth
I got my smile
verse
I got my tongue, got my chin
Got my neck, got my boobies
Got my heart, got my soul
Got my back
I got my sex
verse
I got my arms, got my hands
Got my fingers, got my legs
Got my feet, got my toes
Got my liver
Got my blood
outro
Got life
I've got my freedom
I've got life!
(I've got life, I've got life)
(I've got life, I've got life)
(I've got life, I've got life)
Writer(s): Galt Mac Dermot, Gerome Ragni, James Rado
