I ain’t got nobody since she left me.
And I don’t know why, but I’m startin’ to cry.
I ain’t got nobody since she left me.
And I can’t figure out how I’m gonna’ get by.
I ain’t got nobody since she left me.
I don’t know why, I been down all season,
I ain’t got nobody since she left me.
‘Cause there ain’t no reason for the girl to be leavin’ me.

I don’t know how I’ll ever get by without you.
Nobody, no … nobody.
I’m startin’ to realize my fate.
Nobody, no … nobody.
I’m ready to make up and give another try to live with you.
Nobody, no … nobody.
I hope for our love and us, it’s not too late … too late.
Nobody, nobody.

I ain’t got nobody since she left me.
Oh, and I don’t really think that she’ll ever come back.
I ain’t got nobody since she left me.
If she don’t come back, I’ll have a love attack.
I ain’t got nobody since she left me.
And my tears are like rain, fallin’ down on my face.
I ain’t got nobody since she left me.
‘Cause I know she’s the girl that I’ll never replace.
