in my life
been somebody’s child
been somebody’s child
somebody’s wife
taught sunde school
taught sunde school
an’ carried a knife
lived in good
lived in good
and lived in strife
but one thang
but one thang
i ain’t nev'a been is
loved
had sweet nothin’s
loved
had sweet nothin’s
whispered in my ear
even had somebody
even had somebody
call me dear
stayed with one
stayed with one
for more’n a year
and once or twice
and once or twice
i shed a tear
but i ain’t nev'a been
but i ain’t nev'a been
loved
oh yeah, i been hugged on
and kissed on
an’ i been loved on
but i ain’t
nev'a
and kissed on
an’ i been loved on
but i ain’t
nev'a
been
loved
not
loved
not
true blue
through and through
not till now
not till
you
not till
you
