Lonnie Johnson - Nobody's Lovin' Me (1950) lyrics

rate me

I am cryin’, yes cryin’, I’m so full of misery.

‘Cause I’m lovin’ somebody, and there’s nobody lovin’ me.

I’m wondering, yes wondering, just how foolish I must be,

To keep on lovin’ somebody, when there’s nobody lovin’ me.

Bridge: Right way of livin’, I thought I really learned, it’s better to give than to take.

My love I was givin’, for nothin’ in return, and that’s where I made my mistake.

So, someday, yes someday, you will know what I’m goin’ through.

If you’ll be lovin’ somebody, when there’s nobody lovin’ me.

Bridge: [half bridge piano solo with accompaniment]

My love I was givin’, for nothin’ in return, and that’s where I made my mistake.

So-o-o-o someday, yes someday, you will know what I’m goin’ through.

If you’ll be lovin’ somebody, when there’s nobody lovin’ me.

When there’s nobody lovin’ me.
