B.B. King
Ain’t Nobody Home (1997)
[Verse 1: B.B. King]
Once upon a time, a long long time ago
Wherever you'd lead me, I would surely follow
Girl, you put me through some pain and misery
And now you're standing at my doorstep
Telling me how much you need me
[Chorus: B.B. King & D'Angelo]
Baby, (Nobody's home), ain't nobody home
(Nobody's home) Ain't nobody home
[Verse 2: D'Angelo]
How many times I begged you to come home
But you laughed at me, and said let me alone
Through my falling tears, I saw you walk away
And now you're beggin' me to forgive you
But this time, baby, it's your turn to beg, baby, baby
[Chorus: B.B. King & D'Angelo]
(Nobody's home) Ain't nobody home
(Nobody's home) Ain't nobody home
[Bridge: B.B. King]
Girl, I used to love you
Placed no one else above you
Gave you everything that I own
You can't come back here
Ain't nobody home
[Verse 3: B.B. King & D'Angelo]
Once upon a time, when you went on your way
Girl, I hoped and prayed, that you'd come back some day, baby
But time has made some changes (Yeah), turned me upside down
Now you can beg me (Will you beg me?) to forgive you, baby
But this time, it's your turn to beg, baby
[Chorus: B.B. King & D'Angelo]
(Nobody's home) Ain't nobody home
(Nobody's home) Ain't nobody home
(Nobody's home) You know hurt me one time too many
(Nobody's home) Ain't nobody home
(Nobody's home) Go get you somebody else to hurt, baby
(Nobody's home) I can't take it no more
(Nobody's home) Ain't nobody, nobody, baby
(Nobody's home) Ain't nobody, nobody, baby
(Nobody's home) Ain't nobody, ain't nobody
(Nobody's home) Nobody home
(Nobody's home)
[Outro: D'Angelo]
Ain't nobody home, hoo, nobody home
Ain't nobody home
Hurt somebody else, baby
Ain't nobody home, baby, baby
Oh yeah, ooh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, oh, oh
