Oh! Sweet Nuthin'

Oh! Sweet Nuthin' - Velvet Underground

Say a word for Jimmy Brown

He ain't got nothin' at all

Not the shirt right off his back

He ain't got nothin' at all

And say a word for Ginger Brown

Walks with his head down to the ground

Took the shoes right off his feet

They threw the poor boy right out in the street

And this is what he said

Oh! Sweet nuthin'

She ain't got nothin' at all

Oh! Sweet nuthin'

She ain't got nothin' at all

Say a word for Pearly Mae

She can't tell the night from the day

They threw her out in the street

Just like a cat she landed on her feet

And say a word for Joana Love

She ain't got nothin' at all

With every day she falls in love

And every night she falls

And when she does, she says

Oh! Sweet nuthin'

You know she ain't got nothin' at all

Wow, oh! Sweet nuthin', hey, hey

She ain't got nothin' at all

Oh, let me hear you

Oh, say a word, say a word for Jimmy Brown

He ain't got nothin' at all, not a thing

Not the shirt, shirt on his back

No he ain't got nothin' at all

And say a word for Ginger

He walks with his head to the ground

They took shoes, took the shoes, from his feet, from his feet

And threw the poor boy right out in the street

And then, he said

Oh! Sweet, sweet, nothin'

She ain't got, she ain't got

She ain't got nothin' at all

Sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet nothin'

She ain't got

Sweet, sweet, nothin' sweet, sweet, nothin'

Nothin' at all

Sweet, sweet nothin', got nothin'

Oh! Sweet nuthin'

Oh, oh, oh, ain't got nothin' at all

Oh, me let hear you

(Oh! Sweet nuthin' ain't got nothin' at all)

Oh! Sweet nuthin'

(Oh! Sweet nuthin' ain't got nothin' at all)

She ain't got nothin' at all

She ain't got nothin' at all

She ain't got nothin' at all

She ain't got nothin' at all

She ain't got nothin' at all, sweet nothin'

Ain't got nothin' at all, sweet, sweet nothin'
