Canadian Newfoundland singer/songwriter Ron Hynes(passed away November 19th 2015) wrote the following.

My name is nobody
I'm a weary traveller out upon a lost highway
I come all the way from hell with this tale to tell
Like many here before me
Calling to be set free
My name is nobody
And I am rightly blessed
I heard a voice that cried out inside the wilderness
I awoke and my heart and soul were in despair
Like a sailor lost at sea
No ship to rescue me
My name is nobody
CHORUS:
So I take it one day at a time
I walk the hard line above this blessed sod
And I'm still living with this fear
But I'm still here with all these children of god
My name is nobody
My name is nobody
I'm a weary traveller out across a lost highway
Every night as I lay down I say a silent prayer
That morning light will find me here
Without this cross to bear
My name is nobody
CHORUS:
So I take it one day at a time
I walk the hard line above this blessed sod
And I'm still living with this fear
But I'm still here
I'm still living with this fear
But I'm still here
I am still living with this fear
But I'm still here with all these children of god
My name is nobody
