Nobody Blues

[Verse 1] I was walking down the railroad track Found a foot that the train had hacked Picked it up and I started to [yack?] But something wouldn't let me put it back [Verse 2] Somehow he told me that his name was [Pet?] He had no tongue to speak but that's what he said He wondered what was going on in his head And if the rest of him was live or dead [Chorus] Nobody blues Nobody blues Thought I had nobody 'Til I met somebody who had nobody But the blues [Verse 3] I had a case of the nobody blues I was tired of walking in my shoes A lonely one in a world of twos 'Til I met someone who really knew [Verse 4] I held him close up against my chest He said that things would work out for the best That's when I knew that it was all a test And it was up to me to find the rest [Chorus] Nobody blues Nobody blues Thought I had nobody 'Til I met somebody who had nobody But the blues
