I stopped by an old friend's to pass the time But no one was home and I started to cry Nobody cares nobody sees Nobody knows my troubles but me
No shoulder to cry on no woman who cares Life for me is pain and despair Lord nobody cares nobody sees Nobody knows my troubles but me
[ steel - fiddle ] My heart keeps callin' but nobody hears Lord nobody knows nobody cares Nobody cares nobody sees Nobody knows my troubles but me Lord nobody knows my troubles but me
