La canción surge en un momento en el que a la banda se le estaba exigiendo componer nuevo material para grabar un nuevo disco que se publicara en la Navidad de 1965. Entonces, mientras pensaba qué escribir, Lennon se tumbó y pensó que él era un "hombre de ningún lugar", "sentado en ningún lugar" y que "no sabe a dónde va". Basado en ese pensamiento que se le vino a la cabeza creó la música y la compuso
LETRA
He's a real nowhere man
Sitting in his nowhere land
Making all his nowhere plans for nobody
Doesn't have a point of view
Knows not where he's going to
Isn't he a bit like you and me?
Nowhere man please listen
You don't know what you're missing
Nowhere man, the world is at your command
He's as blind as he can be
Just sees what he wants to see
Nowhere man, can you see me at all
Nowhere man don't worry
Take your time, don't hurry
Leave it all 'til somebody else
Lends you a hand
Ah, la, la, la, la
Doesn't have a point of view
Knows not where he's going to
Isn't he a bit like you and me?
Nowhere man please listen
You don't know what you're missing
Nowhere man, The world is at your command
Ah, la, la, la, la
He's a real nowhere man
Sitting in his nowhere land
Making all his nowhere plans for nobody
Making all his nowhere plans for nobody
Making all his nowhere plans for nobody
