I Ain’t Got Nobody
There's been a sayin' goin' round
And I begin to think it's true
It's awful hard to love someone
When they don't care about you
Once I had a lovin' man
As good as any in town
But now I’m sad and lonely
For he’s gone and turned me down
'Cause I ain't got nobody, and nobody cares for me
And I'm sad and lonely
Won't somebody come and take a chance with me?
I'll sing sweet love songs, honey, all the time
If you'll come and be my sweet baby mine
'Cause I ain't got nobody, and nobody cares for me
If I only had someone
That I could only call my own
For I would marry them at once
And take them to my little homе
Every night, I sigh and cry
No happiness is all I find
I have no onе to love me
No one to content my mind
'Cause I ain't got no, no, no, nobody
And nobody nobody nobody cares about me
That’s why I’m sad and, sad and lonely
Won't somebody come and take a little chance with me?
I'll sing, I’ll sing sweet love songs, honey honey, all the time
If you'll, if you’ll only come and be my sweet baby mine
'Cause I ain't got no, no, no nobody
And nobody, nobody, nobody cares about poor, poor, poor little old me
Too bad
