Robben Ford - Nothin' To Nobody

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
