Nobody
Unstoppable Pursuit: Defying Limits with The Sheepdogs' 'Nobody'
Lyrics
Searching for something in these same old streets
Searching for something familiar in these streets, possibly seeking meaning or purpose.
The thought of leaving never tasted so sweet
Considering leaving, finding the idea of departure appealing.
Tonight I'm going downtown with all these fools
Going out tonight in the city with others who might seem foolish.
I got the feeling that I just can't lose
Confidence in winning or succeeding.
Hey bartender, do you understand?
Asking the bartender for comprehension or understanding.
I need a good woman and a rock and roll band
Desiring both a good romantic partner and a rock and roll lifestyle.
I got my Mojo down, ones and twos
Feeling low or lacking energy, indicated by "Mojo down."
Always running to keep up with the blues, I'm saying
Continuously moving to cope with sadness or depression.
Nobody is gonna bring me down
Confidence that nobody can bring the speaker down.
Nobody is gonna turn me 'round
Determination not to be swayed or influenced by others.
No, no, no
Reinforcing the refusal to be brought down or turned around.
Across the desert on a mission tonight
Embarking on a significant journey, possibly metaphorical, with purpose.
We hit the city limits with the sun in our eyes
Reaching the outskirts of the city at sunset.
We got the James Brown on the radio
Listening to lively music by James Brown.
I turn it up just as loud as it goes
Playing the music as loudly as possible.
I got the feeling that I can't be beat
Feeling unbeatable or invincible.
I got a pretty mamma in the passenger seat
Having a beautiful partner in the car.
She said, "I don't know how you live so fast
The partner questioning the speaker's fast-paced lifestyle.
But, don't slow down 'cause it might be the last"
Urging not to slow down as it might be risky.
Nobody is gonna bring me down
Reiteration of the confidence that nobody can bring the speaker down.
(Nobody)
Repeating the assertion that nobody can bring the speaker down.
Nobody is gonna turn me 'round
Reaffirming the determination not to be turned around by anyone.
(Nobody)
Reiterating the commitment not to be turned around.
Nobody
Declaring again that nobody can bring the speaker down.
Is gonna bring me down
Emphasizing the confidence in not being brought down.
Nobody
Repeating the determination not to be turned around.
Is gonna turn me around
Continuing to assert that nobody will turn the speaker around.
Nobody is gonna bring me down
Restating the confidence that nobody can bring the speaker down.
Nobody is gonna turn me 'round
Reiterating the determination not to be turned around.
(Nobody, yeah)
Final assertion that nobody will bring the speaker down.
