Nobody Knows - John Lee Hooker

Nobody know, nobody know what I’ve been through

Nobody know, know what I’ve been through

Sometime, sometime I didn’t have food to go on my table

That’s why I sang the blues

You got to feel it, you got to know it

You got to be and been through this thing to sing the blues

And that’s why nobody know what I’ve been through

I was born on a little cotton farm

My mother and my father were very poor

I was unprivileged, I didn’t have a chance

And that’s why I just sang the blue

People, you don’t know I’ve been through

I wonder why everything I do

I just can’t get lucky, save my life

My mother and my father both are dead and gone

They loved me in the world alone

I ain’t got nobody to tell my trouble to

Well, I’m drifting, I’m drifting

I’m drifting from town to town

But nobody know I’ve been through
