I Ain't Got Nobody (And Nobody Cares For Me)

There's a saying going round I began to think it's true It's awful hard to love someone When they don't care about you Once I had a loving gal Sweetest thing in this town Now I'm sad and lonely She gonna turn me down (what's the matter with you, boy? What's wrong?) Now I ain't got nobody And nobody cares for me, oh Lord That's why I'm so sad and lonely Won't somebody come and take a chance with me? I'll sing you sweet love songs, honey, all of the time If you'll only be that pretty mama of mine 'Cause I ain't got nobody And nobody cares for me, oh Lord All right, Thomas! Now I ain't got nobody And nobody cares for me, oh Lord That's why I'm so sad and lonely Won't somebody come and take a chance with me? I'll sing you sweet love songs, honey, all of the time If you'll only be that pretty mama of mine 'Cause I ain't got nobody And nobody cares for me, oh Lord
