[Verse]
C              Bb
Say a word for Jimmy Brown
F                         C
  He ain't got nothing at all
C                          Bb
He knocked the shirt right of his back
F                         C
  He ain't got nothing at all
C                  Bb
And say a word for Ginger Brown
F                             C
  He walks with his head down to the ground
C                    Bb
Took the shoes right off his feet
F                        C
  And threw the poor boy right out in the street
C
And this is what he said:

[Chorus]
C        Bb
Oh sweet nuthin'
F                          C
  She ain't got nothing at all
C        Bb
Oh sweet nuthin'
F                          C
  She ain't got nothing at all

[Verse]
C              Bb
Say a word for Pearly May
F                                   C
  She can't tell the night from the day
C                  Bb
They threw her out in the street
F                                       C
  But just like a cat she landed on her feet
C                  Bb
And say a word for Joana Love
F                          C
  She ain't got nothing at all
C                  Bb
With every day she falls in love
F                                C
  And every night she falls and when she does
C
She says:

[Chorus]
C        Bb
Oh sweet nuthin'
F                                   C
  You know she ain't got nothing at all
C            Bb
Woe Oh sweet nuthin'
F                          C
  She ain't got nothing at all

Oh let me hear you!

[Solo]


[Verse]
C                             Bb
Oh say a word, say a word for Jimmy Brown
F                         C
  He ain't got nothing at all, not a thing
C                      Bb
And not a shirt, shirt on his back
F                             C
  No, he ain't got nothing at all
C                  Bb
And say a word for Ginger
F                                C
  He walks with his head to the ground
C                                 Bb
He took the shoes, took the shoes from his feet, from his feet
F                                      C
  And threw the poor boy out into the street
C
And then he said:

[Chorus]
C               Bb
Oh sweet, sweet nuthin'
F                                                      C
She ain't got, she ain't got, she ain't got nothing at all
C                       Bb
Sweet sweet sweet sweet nuthin'
F                  C
  She ain't got 
C           Bb
Sweet Sweet nuthin'
F                      C
  Ain't got nothing at all
C           Bb
Sweet Sweet nuthin' got nothing Oh nothing
F                           C
Oh she ain't got nothing at all

Oh let me hear:

[Solo]

[Outro]
F                          C
  She ain't got nothing at all
F                          C
  She ain't got nothing at all
F                          C
  She ain't got nothing at all
F                          C
  She ain't got nothing at all
F                          C
  She ain't got nothing at all
C     Bb
Sweet nuthin'
F                          C
  She ain't got nothing at all
C           Bb
Sweet Sweet nuthin'
F                          C
  She ain't got nothing at all
