I'm Nobody's Baby - Roy Eldridge

I’m nobody’s baby, I wonder why

Each night and day I pray the lord up above

Please send me down somebody to love

But nobody wants me, I’m blue somehow

Won’t someone here my plea and take a chance with me

'Cause I’m nobody’s baby now

No, nobody’s baby, and I’ve got to know the reason why

Last week, I was walking down the street and met and I said

«Hey, maybe I was meant for you»

But he only tipped his hat and shook his head

Kept on walking down the avenue

Oh, nobody wants me, I’m mighty blue somehow

Won’t someone here my plea and take a little chance with me

Beacause I’m…

No, nobody’s baby, I’m blue somehow

Won’t someone here my plea and take a chance with me

There’s no dennying, I’m crying

I’m lonesome, on my ownsome

I don’t mean maybe, I’m nobody’s baby
