Текст песни I'm Nobody's Baby (Recorded 1927) - 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
Please send me down somebody to love
But nobody wants me, I'm blue somehow
Won't someone hear my plea
And take a chance with me
Because I'm nobody's baby now
No, no, no, no, no nobody's baby,
I, I just wonder why
Each night and day, night and day
I pray, I pray the Lord up above
Do please, please send me down some sweet
Somebody to love
Because, no, no, no, nobody wants me,
I'm, I'm blue somehow
Oh, won't someone hear my plea
Come take a little chance with me
Because I'm no, no, no, nobody's baby now
