Nobody
Walkin'
Live at the Troubadour 1969 Another
in-concert example of how Tim would stretch
his voice and lyrics almost to
the breaking point I
left my baby standing in the backdoor crying
I left my baby standing in the
backdoor crying
She said "Timmy, you got a home
As long as I got
mine" But
sometimes you gotta turn your back
Sometimes you gotta turn your back
(When
it’s gone)
Takes it on back And
nobody walking, nobody talking
Ever pay the price for me
Ah, there ain't
nobody living, nobody giving
Ever pay the price for me I
told my babe that it just don’t work
I hear it girl but it just don’t
work
I got the please but I ain’t got the moves
I got the lies, but
I ain’t got the tools And
nobody walking, nobody talking
Ever pay the price for me
Ah, there ain't
nobody living, nobody giving
Ever pay the price for me I
left my baby standing in the backdoor crying
I left my baby standing in the
backdoor crying
She said "You got a home, Timmy
As long as I got
mine" And
nobody walking, nobody talking
Ever pay the price for me
Ah, there ain't
nobody living, nobody giving
Ever pay the price for me I’m
going home honey
I’m going home Everybody
wants to earn a decent wage
Everybody trying to get their way
Everybody
stepping on their friends
Everybody who lives that way gonna lose in the end And
nobody walking, nobody talking
Ever pay the price for me
Ah, there ain't
nobody living, nobody giving
Ever pay the price for you You
gotta know love
You gotta know love
You gotta know love
You gotta give
and never pay
You gotta give and never pay I
left my baby standing in the backdoor crying
I left my baby standing in the
backdoor crying
She said "You got a home, As long as I got mine"
Please
be my woman darling
Let me care for you
I spent all day long drinking that
wine
But sooner or later I’m bound to make it right Treat
me any way that you know Ain’t
gonna take no preacher
To tell me that our love will never fade
We all
know it’s true Tim
