Ain’t got no home, ain’t got no shoes
Ain’t got no money, ain’t got no class
Ain’t got no skirts, ain’t got no sweater
Ain’t got no perfume, ain’t got bed
Ain’t got no man 

Ain’t got no mother, ain’t got no culture
Ain’t got no friends, ain’t got no schoolin‘
Ain’t got no love, ain’t got no name
Ain’t got no ticket, ain’t got no token
Ain’t got no god

What about god, why I am alive anyway
What about god, nobody can take away

I got my hair, I got my head
I got my brains, I got my ears
I got my eyes, I got my nose
I got my mouth, I got my smile

I got my tongue, I got my chin
I got my neck, I got my boobs
I got my heart, I got my soul
I got my back, I got my sex

I got my arms, got my hands
I got my fingers, got my legs
I got my feet, I got my toes
I got my liver, got my blood

I’ve got life
I’ve got my freedom

I’ve got a life
I’ve got a life
And I’m gonna give it
I’ve got a life
and nobody’s gonna take it away
I’ve got a life
