hair / head / brains / ears / eyes / nose / mouth / smile / tongue / neck / heart / back /arms / hands / legs / toes / liver / feet / fingers 

Ain't got no home, ain't got no shoes 
Ain't got no money, ain't got no class  
Ain't got no friends, ain't got no schooling   
Ain't got no wear, ain't got no job 
Ain't got no money, no place to stay  
Ain't got no father, ain't got no mother 
Ain't got no children, ain't got no sisters above  
Ain't got no earth, ain't got no faith 
Ain't got no touch, ain't got no god  
Ain't got no love 
Ain't got no wine, no cigarettes  
Ain't got no clothes, no country  
No class, no schooling 
No friends, no nothing 
Ain't got no god  
Ain't got one more  
Ain't got no earth, -- No food, no home 
I said I ain't got no clothes No job, no nothing 
Ain't got long to live  
And I ain't got no love 
But what have I got? 
Let me tell ya what I've got  
That nobody's gonna take away.

I got my …         on my …

I got my …    , 
I got my         … I got my     , 
I got my         … I dot my…      , 
I got my         … I got my … ,

I got my …        ,  
 
I got my boobies I got my … ,  
I got my soul 
I got my …       , I got my sex 
I got my … , I got my …  
I got my … , got my … I got my … ,

Got life, I got my life.

Observacions i context

Ain't Got No Life, by Nina Simone: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oOwtHCTIhgE&ab_channel=elperroreggae (07/04/2022)

- It would be useful to clarify the use of ain't instead of haven't got.   
  - In one minute we remember as much body-related vocabulary as we are able to and say, alternately, Simon says: touch your...  and complete with a part of the body that we should touch.  
- Nina Simone is greatly influenced, both musically and as an activist, by Marian Anderson (1897-1993).  
- Other jazz and blues singers of the time include Ella Fitzgerald (1917-1996), Billie Holiday (1915-1959) and Sarah Vaughan (1924-1990).
