Chuck Berry - I Never Thought

You know I never really thought
some things would ever really come to be
'Cause I don't bother nobody
and don't nobody bother me

I went down in Mississippi,
I asked Mister Charlie about my roots
He said, "Turn around, bend over, boy,
they're right here in my boots"
You know I never thought a thing like
that would ever really come to be
'Cause I don't bother nobody
and don't nobody bother me

I asked a policeman the time,
he swung and crowned me with his stock
I managed to walk away
so glad it weren't twelve o'clock
You know I never thought a thing like
that would ever really come to be
'Cause I don't bother nobody
and don't nobody bother me

My girl friend's datin' this here guy who's goin'
out with some man's wife
I lost my girl, the wife her husband,
the guy he lost his life
You know I never thought a thing like
that would ever really come to be
'Cause I don't bother nobody
and don't nobody bother me

I used to have a Ford Torino
and at that time I had a chick
She used to get her kicks
just askin' me to flick my Bic
You know I never thought a thing like
that would ever really come to be
'Cause I don't bother nobody
and don't nobody bother me

My grandpa drove a horse
and buggy but my father used the train
I worked and bought a Cadillac
but my son, he drives a plane
You know I never thought a thing like
that would ever really come to be
'Cause I don't bother nobody
and don't nobody bother me
