Nobody Loves an Irishman

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
