Intro: Verse: Say a word for Jimmy Brown He ain't got nothing at all He knocked the shirt right of his back He ain't got nothing at all And say a word for Ginger Brown Walks with his head down to the ground Took the shoes right off his feet and threw the poor boy right out in the street And this is what he said Oh sweet nuthin' She ain't got nothing at all Oh sweet nuthin' She ain't got nothing at all Say a word for Polly May She can't tell the night from the day They threw her out in the street But just like a cat she landed on her feet And say a word for Joanna Love She ain't got nothing at all 'Cause everyday she falls in love And every night she falls and when she does She says Oh sweet nuthin' You know she ain't got nothing at all Oh sweet nuthin' She ain't got nothing at all Oh let me hear you! Oh, say a word, say a word for Jimmy Brown He ain't got nothing at all, not a thing And not a shirt, shirt on his back No, he ain't got nothing at all And say a word for Ginger He walks with his head to the ground He took the shoes, took the shoes from his feet, from his feet And threw the poor boy out into the street And then he said: Oh, sweet sweet nuthin' She ain't got, she ain't got, she ain't got nothing at all Sweet sweet sweet sweet nuthin' She ain't got Sweet Sweet nothing ... Oh, let me hear you (guitar solo) She ain't got nothing at all ...
