Ain't got no home, ain't got no shoes
Ain't got no money, ain't go class
Ain't got no skirts, ain't got no sweater
Ain't go no perfume, ain't got no babe
Ain't got no mind
Ain't got no mother, ain't got no culture
Ain't got no friends, ain't got no schoolin'
Ain't got no love, ain't got no name
Ain't got no ticket, ain't got no token
Ain't got no god
Yeah, what about God? Why am I alive anyway?
Yeah, what have I got nobody can take away?
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
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
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, I've got life
Nina Simone, geboren Eunice Waymon (1933) was een Amerikaanse
zangers, songwriter, pianiste, arrangeur en activiste. Levenslang
geplaagd door racisme bleven haar enorme verdiensten grotendeels
onderbelicht. Toch noemen veel vooraanstaande muziekartiesten haar
als belangrijke inspiratiebron. Het unieke Ain't got no-I got life
(haar bijdrage aan de musical Hair) stond in 1969 in Nederland op
nummer 1.
