Lyrics I'm Nobody's Baby - Ruth Etting

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
