Nobody Knows My Name - Rickie Lee Jones

For a thousand years

I’ve lay upon the Lake Victoria

I was winged and many colored

And nobody knew my name

For a thousand years

I fell out of the sand into Guadeloupe

And I made many songs into the air

And nobody knew my name

I fell like water in sweet gasps of hydrogen

Up the sea over Bikini Islands and I

Dove into liquid concrete of sweet silver lake

The liquid concrete of down by the river

And nobody knew my name

Now, I walk among them and I sing to them

And I open up my wrists and nobody knows my name

And I translate into many hours of history

But nobody knows my name

I stood in the four winds, I stood in the four winds

I stood in the four winds but nobody knows my name

So I walk again, yeah, I walk every night

So I walk again, I look at you, sweet every face

Do you know my name

Do you, do you know my name

Do you know my name

Do you know my name

Say it, do you know my name

Say it, do you know my name

Do you know my name, do you know my

Do you know my name, do you know my, my
