Lyrics

I used to be my mother's baby When I was near my dad went wild Whenever we had company They'd bounce me on their knee The neighbors thought I was a darling child Once I was everybody's baby But right now I'm lonesome as can be You see, I'm nobody's baby I wonder why Each night and day, I pray, the lord up above To please send me down somebody to love But nobody wants me I'm blue somehow Won't someone hear my plea Come take a little chance with me Because I'm nobody's baby now I'm no-no-no-no-nobody's baby I, I just wanna cry Each night and day, night and day I pray, I pray the lord up above To please, please send me down some sweet, somebody to love Because no-no-no-no-nobody wants me I'm, I'm blue somehow Won't someone hear my plea? Come take a little chance with me Because I'm no-no-no-no-no-nobody's baby now
