Lonnie Johnson - My Love Is Down (1944) lyrics

Don't you understand me baby? There'll never be no other one but you.

Don't you understand me baby? There'll never be no other one but you.

I loved you then and I love you now, and no one else will ever do.

Every time the sun goes down, my love comes down for you.

Every time it rains, my love comes down for you.

‘Cause there's no other woman, will understand me the way you do.

If you would listen to me baby, we would still be together today.

If you would only listen to me baby, we would still be together today.

But instead of listenin' to me baby, you listen to everything people has got to say.

Baby, please come home darling, there's nobody in your place.

Please come home darling, there's nobody in your place.

Home is no home to me baby, without your smilin' face.

I love you so baby, my love for you will never stop.

I love you so baby, my love for you will never stop.

And when it begins raining baby, my love is down like a five-cent mop.
