Lyrics

Translation
Bilingual
The preacher's in the pulpit
The beggar's in the street
The waitress splits her tips
With a man she'll never meet
The snow up on the mountain
Fills the river when it melts
There ain't nobody better than nobody else
The thief picks a pocket
The cop walks a beat
The banker robs both of them
Blind every week
In a suite at the Ritz
Or a two-bit motel
There ain't nobody better than nobody else
The porter makes the bed up
The maid turns it down
The brakeman gets homesick
With each passing town
First class and coach both
Arrive right at twelve
There ain't nobody better than nobody else
The drifter skips town
While the drunk drinks a beer
The widow lights a candle
And holds back her tears
This living gets lonely
I know all too well
There ain't nobody better than nobody else
An urn on the mantle
Or a box in the ground
A statue of bronze
In the center of town
It all ends the same
Just as near as I can tell
There ain't nobody better than nobody else
From the meadows of Heaven
To the black sands of Hell
There ain't nobody better than nobody else
