Lyrics
I ain't got nobody that I can depend on
I ain't got nobody that I can depend on
Ain't got nobody that I can depend on
Ain't got nobody that I can depend on
Ain't got no one (no tengo a nadie)
That I know of (no tengo a nadie)
That I can depend on (no tengo a nadie)
Ain't got no one (no tengo a nadie)
Got nobody (no tengo a nadie)
That I can depend on (no tengo a nadie)
I ain't got nobody that I can depend on (no tengo a nadie)
I ain't got nobody that I can depend on (no tengo a nadie)
