Nobody Loves Like an Irishman (Remastered) - Lonnie Donegan

You left me for another man, baby

Tell me what did he do for you

Yes, you ran away with another man, baby

I want to know what did he do for you

Because now all of your money's gone, baby

And he ain't got no more, no more use for you

When I was your fool, baby

Hey, I worked for you, both night and day

Yes, I was your fool, baby

Yes, I worked for you, both night and day

Oh, you know I had to be a fool, baby

Oh, to let you treat me this way

I got your letter this morning, baby

And I read every word you had to say

Yes, you know I got your letter early this morning, baby

And I read every word you had to say

Oh, but if you loved to me like the say you do, baby

Then why in the world did you go away?

You never said you was doin' alright

But then it read, "Please let me come back home"

Yes, you never said you were doin' okay, baby

But then it read, "Please let me come back home"

So here is my answer to your letter baby

I've been doing alright since you've been gone

So you love me or leave me, baby

Baby, either one you wanna do

Oh, I said, "Love me, love me, love me or leave me

Baby, either one you wanna do"

Because you see strange things happening, baby

And something good happened to you

If you know you don't want me

Baby, why won't you let me be?

Oh, if you know, if you know, if you know you don't want me

Baby, why won't you let me be?

Because you, it's better to live without you, baby

Than to live on in misery

Oh, midnight find me cryin'

Daylight catch me cryin' too

Yes, I said, "Midnight, midnight, midnight find cryin'

Daylight catch me cryin' too"

You better straighten you mind, pretty baby

'Cause something could happened to you

Nobody loves me but my mother

And she could be jivin' too

Yes, nobody, nobody loves me but my mother

And she could be jivin' too

Now you know why I act so funny with you, baby

When you do the things you do
