I DON'T LOVE NOBODY. Copyright, 1896. by Howley. Haviland & Co. Words and Muslo b. Lew Sully. 
Born down in Kentucky, lived there all my life, I've been very lucky, never had a wife; Mighty near it Sunday, asked a coon to wed, Met that lady Monday, and this is what she said: 
Chorus. I don't love a nobody, nobody loves me, You're after my money, don't care for me; I'm gwine to live single, always a be free, I don't love a nobody, nobody loves me. 
Went out promenading down on Thompson Street, Met a colored lady, smiled on her so sweet; Said, ah there, my honey, thought I had her dead, When I tried to kiss her, why, this is what she said:- Chorus. 
Met Miss Martha Johnson at a colored ball, Tried her best to shake me, wouldn't work at all, Told her that I loved her, marry quick as wink: She said, "Look here, niggah, I'm gwine to talk distinct:"- Chorus. 
Went out Tuesday evening, 'long with Carter Bryce, Broke that Kansas nigger "shootin' "poker dice. Made love to his lady, kissed her right away. Pulled a razor on me, and then I heard her say:- Chorus.
