I Ain't Got Nobody
Loneliness Unveiled: Yearning for Love Amidst Rejection
Lyrics
There's been a sayin' goin' round
There's a common saying circulating.
And I begin to think it's true
The speaker is starting to believe in the truth of the saying.
It's awful hard to love someone
It's extremely challenging to love someone.
When they don't care about you
Loving someone becomes difficult when they don't reciprocate the feelings.
Once I had a lovin' gal
The speaker used to have a loving girlfriend.
The sweetest little thing in town
She was the sweetest person in town.
But now she's gone and left me
However, she has left the speaker.
She done turn me down
She rejected the speaker.
Now I ain't got nobody, and nobody cares for me!
The speaker emphasizes the current state of having nobody in their life who cares.
That's why I'm sad and lonely,
The reason for the speaker's sadness and loneliness is the lack of companionship.
Won't somebody come and take a chance with me?
The speaker invites someone to take a chance and be with them.
I'll sing you love songs, honey, all the time,
The speaker expresses a willingness to sing love songs consistently.
If you'll only say you'll be sweet gal of mine,
The speaker requests the person to agree to be their sweetheart.
Oh, I ain't got nobody, nobody cares for me!
Reiteration of the current state of having nobody who cares for the speaker.
I'll sing you love songs, honey, all the time,
Repetition of the offer to sing love songs regularly.
If you'll only say you'll be sweet gal of mine,
Repetition of the request for the person to be the speaker's sweetheart.
Oh, I ain't got nobody, nobody cares for me!
Reiteration of the speaker's loneliness and lack of care from others.
