No Love No Nothin' 1943 'The Girls He Left Behind'

James Pitt-Payne, London UK - 27 Sep 2004

I'm just about as solitary
As anyone could be;
Of course, my life is not so merry,
But that's all right with me;

No love, no nothin',
Until my baby comes home.
No, sir, no nothin',
As long as baby must roam;
I promised him,
I'd wait for him
Till even Hades froze,
I'm lonesome, heaven knows,
But what I said still goes.
No love, no nothin',
And that's a promise I'll keep;
No fun with no one,
I'm getting plenty of sleep,
My heart's on strike,
And though it's like
An empty honeycomb,
No love, no, sir,
No nothin' till my baby comes home.

No love, no nothin',
Until my baby comes home.
No, sir, no nothin',
As long as baby must roam;
I promised him,
I'd wait for him
Till even Hades froze,
I'm lonesome, heaven knows,
But what I said still goes.
No love, no nothin',
And that's a promise I'll keep;
No fun with no one,
I'm getting plenty of sleep,
My heart's on strike,
And though it's like
An empty honeycomb,
No love, no, sir,
No nothin' till my baby comes home.
