Ain’t Nobody Home

Once upon a time, a long, long time ago

Where you'd lead me, I would surely follow

Boy, you put me through some pain and misery

Now you're standing on my doorstep

Telling me just how much you need me

Oh, baby, ain't nobody home (nobody's home)

Oh, ain't nobody home (nobody's home)

How many times I begged for you to come home?

But you laughed at me, you said, "Leave me alone," yeah

Through my falling tears, I watched you walk away

And now you're begging me to forgive you

Well, this time, baby, it's your turn to beg

'Cause there ain't nobody home (nobody's home)

Oh, ain't nobody home (nobody's home)

Oh, I said, boy, I used to love you (nobody's home)

Oh, I placed no one else above you (nobody's)

Oh, I gave you everything I own (nobody's home)

And now you come around here

Well, I'm here to tell you, ain't nobody home

Once upon a time when you went on your way

Boy, I hoped and prayed that you'd come back someday

But time has made some changes and turned me upside down

So you can beg me to forgive you

But this time, baby, you can turn right around

Ain't nobody home (nobody's home)

No, ain't nobody home (ain't nobody home)

Oh, ain't nobody (ain't nobody home)

Ain't nobody home no more

Don't come around here (ain't nobody, nobody home)

Nobody's home, no

Ain't nobody, ooh (ain't nobody home)

Nobody here, don't come around here no more (ain't nobody home)

Don't, no, my baby, don't you (ain't nobody)

Don't you come around knocking on my door (nobody)

'Cause there ain't nobody home

Nobody, oh (nobody)

No, no, no, no, ooh (nobody)

Nobody home
