Somebody to Love

I've been all over this country
I've been halfway 'round the world
I've been traveling so dog gone much
That I haven't got a steady girl

Somebody to love (somebody to love)
Somebody to love (somebody to love)
Somebody to call me turtledove
Somebody to love

Yes, I guess I've been lucky
I've had me fortune and fame
But I would give up my rovin' days
Just to change some girlie's name

Somebody to love (somebody to love)
Somebody to love (somebody to love)
Somebody to call me turtledove
Somebody to love

I've been hurtin' (he's been hurtin')
Such a long, long time (long, long time)
I've been searchin' (he's been searchin')
Where's that girl of mine?

Won't you hear me now
If there's somebody listenin'
Won't you answer my plea?
Won't you send me a good, good girl
Just to spend her life with me?
