No Love, No Nothin'

No Love, No Nothin'

music by Harry Warren (above)

lyric by Leo Robin (top l-r: Leo Robin, Gus Kahn, Jerome Kern, L. Wolfe Gilbert, Sigmund Romberg)

No love, no nothin', until my baby comes home,

No sir, no nothin', as long as baby must roam.

I promised her I'd wait for her till even Hades froze,

I'm lonesome, heaven knows, but what I said still goes.

No love, no nothin', and that's a promise I'll keep,

No fun with no one, I'm getting plenty of sleep,

My heart's on strike and though it's like an empty honeycomb,

No love, no sir, no nothin' till my baby comes home...
