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 sweaters 
Ain't got no faith, ain't got no beard 
Ain't got no mind 

Ain't got no mother, ain't got no culture 
Ain't got no friends, ain't got no schooling 
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 have I got? 
Why am I alive anyway? 
Yeah, what have I got? 
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 [bad word] 
I got my heart, I got my soul 
I got my back, I got my  

I got my arms, I 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 the life 
I've got life
I'm gonna keep it 
I've got life, I've got life
And nobody's gonna take it away
I've got life
