Robben Ford - Nothin' To Nobody lyrics

I'm a father to my children I'm a husband to my wife Seems I been something to somebody Every day of my life This is part of the master plan It don't do much to preserve a man And I'd like to see what it feels like to be Nothin' to nobody, nothin' to nobody I'm a keeper to my brother I'm my mama's fair haired boy But you know people, I would rather be Nobody's pride and joy No man is an island so they say But if I could go there for just one day Yeah, I'd like to see what it feels like to be Nothin' to nobody, nothin' to nobody I wanna be free as a bird Flyin' south for the winter And by the time they miss me I'll be long gone, yeah, long gone For some people life is just a garden You know it seems like they can just Pick and choose for themselves For me life is just the burdens That I have to carry for someone else I'm top dog at my job I do more than others can The boss likes to tell me I'm his right hand man, yeah The preacher on Sunday He tells me I'm just another child of God Lord, if You're there and if You care Hey, can You see fit, yeah, to answer my prayer? 'Cause I wanna see what it feels like to be Nothin' to nobody, nothin' to nobody Free as a bird, ooh, nothin' to nobody
