Nobody Walkin'

I left my baby standing in the back door crying

I left my baby standing in the back door crying

She said, "You got a home as long as I got mine"

She said, "You got a home as long as I got mine"

And nobody walking, nobody talking

Ever pay the price I owe her

Ah, there ain't nobody living, nobody giving

Ever pay the price I owe her

But sometimes you gotta turn your back

Ah, sometimes you gotta turn your back

Just to show that little girl

That there is something she's gonna lack

Just to show that little girl

There's something more that you desire

Nobody walking, nobody talking

Ever pay the price

Nobody living, anybody giving

Ever pay the price I owe her

I don't need it, oh, to rain

I don't need it, oh, to rain now

I don't need it, oh, to rain

Oh, to rain

Well, I know you've been turning tricks, honey

Up and down the avenue

And I've been trying to tease you

Oh, honey, just to see what you'd do

I don't need it, oh, to rain

I don't need it to rain

Oh, no more, oh, no more

When that storm comes raining down

When that storm comes raining down

There ain't gonna be nobody, honey

Oh, to keep you warm, ain't gonna be nobody

Mama here to keep you warm

Oh, no more

Ah, there ain't nobody walking, nobody talking

Ever pay the price, not for you, honey

There ain't nobody living, nobody giving

Ever pay the price I owe you

No mama, no, no, no, no

Not to rain, not to rain, not to rain, not to rain

Mama, not to rain, no, no, no

Oh, no more, no more, no more, no more
