[Verse]
C Bb
Say a word for Jimmy Brown
F C
He ain't got nothing at all
C Bb
He knocked the shirt right of his back
F C
He ain't got nothing at all
C Bb
And say a word for Ginger Brown
F C
He walks with his head down to the ground
C Bb
Took the shoes right off his feet
F C
And threw the poor boy right out in the street
C
And this is what he said:
[Chorus]
C Bb
Oh sweet nuthin'
F C
She ain't got nothing at all
C Bb
Oh sweet nuthin'
F C
She ain't got nothing at all
[Verse]
C Bb
Say a word for Pearly May
F C
She can't tell the night from the day
C Bb
They threw her out in the street
F C
But just like a cat she landed on her feet
C Bb
And say a word for Joana Love
F C
She ain't got nothing at all
C Bb
With every day she falls in love
F C
And every night she falls and when she does
C
She says:
[Chorus]
C Bb
Oh sweet nuthin'
F C
You know she ain't got nothing at all
C Bb
Woe Oh sweet nuthin'
F C
She ain't got nothing at all
Oh let me hear you!
[Solo]
[Verse]
C Bb
Oh say a word, say a word for Jimmy Brown
F C
He ain't got nothing at all, not a thing
C Bb
And not a shirt, shirt on his back
F C
No, he ain't got nothing at all
C Bb
And say a word for Ginger
F C
He walks with his head to the ground
C Bb
He took the shoes, took the shoes from his feet, from his feet
F C
And threw the poor boy out into the street
C
And then he said:
[Chorus]
C Bb
Oh sweet, sweet nuthin'
F C
She ain't got, she ain't got, she ain't got nothing at all
C Bb
Sweet sweet sweet sweet nuthin'
F C
She ain't got
C Bb
Sweet Sweet nuthin'
F C
Ain't got nothing at all
C Bb
Sweet Sweet nuthin' got nothing Oh nothing
F C
Oh she ain't got nothing at all
Oh let me hear:
[Solo]
[Outro]
F C
She ain't got nothing at all
F C
She ain't got nothing at all
F C
She ain't got nothing at all
F C
She ain't got nothing at all
F C
She ain't got nothing at all
C Bb
Sweet nuthin'
F C
She ain't got nothing at all
C Bb
Sweet Sweet nuthin'
F C
She ain't got nothing at all
