Once I was cherished, treasured as a prize Guardian angels flew upside my head, peacocks danced behind my eyes A brass band played a serenade on my parade, my splendour was adored Now I'm nobody's baby anymore
I've stepped out on highways that were studded with jewels I rode into the City of Kings on the back of a mule I kissed riches, strode tall in my britches, I knew esprit de corps Now I'm nobody's baby anymore
I've had love and I've had love Too much or not enough Both the famine and the feast Have gone to make my beast
I went to the river and I sucked the river dry I swallowed Eden whole, I rolled and smoked the sky Drank my skinful, slaked my thirst, from shore to barren shore Now I'm nobody's baby anymoreTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
