Never Had No One Ever Lyrics
[Verse 1]
When you walk without ease
On these
Streets where you were raised
I had a really bad dream
It lasted 20 years, 7 months, and 27 days

[Chorus]
And I never, never, oh, had no one ever
I never had no one ever
I never had no, no one ever
Had no one ever
Never, no
Oh
[Instrumental Outro]
