[ Featuring His Texas Playboys, Jack Loyd ]
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
