I Ain't Got Nobody

There's a saying going all around this town

And I'm beginning to think it's true

Folks, it's awfully hard to love someone

When they don't care about you

Now I once had a sweetheart

Just as good as any in this town

But now I'm sad and lonely

He done turned me down

I ain't got nobody

And ain't nobody cares about me

That's why I'm sad and lonely

Won't some sweet daddy take a chance with me?

Well, I'll sing sweet love songs all the time

If you'll come and be my daddy, mine

I ain't got nobody

And ain't nobody cares about me

I ain't got nobody

And ain't nobody cares about poor Annie Lee
