"At least when I'm with me, I'm all alone." - Rylan Brooks, Nobody Loves Me Like Myself

lyrics

Nobody Loves Me Like Myself
By Nate Rylan & Chris Brooks
ASCAP 2018

Nobody loves me like myself,
I've got that special touch.
Nobody loves me like myself,
When it comes to me I can't get enough.
Been around the world,
Known a lot of pretty women,
But the best kind of lovin' is the kind that's God given.
Nobody loves me like myself,
So mama just let me be.

Pulled up to the edge of nothing.
Julie had her thumb out searching for something,
Far away from Claypool, Arizona.
Thinking we could take a ride up to Sedona.
She talked, I listened,
Pulled over, then we started kissin'.
Well, she went down, I thought I was in heaven,
But the grip she was holding was a loaded .57.

Nobody loves me like myself,
I can work with what I've got.
Nobody loves me like myself,
'CauseI I go to bed alive more often then not.
She flipped me over-easy on the side of the road,
But at least when I'm with me, well....I'm all alone.
Nobody loves me like myself,
So mama just let me be.

Suzie had her eye on anything with a belt buckle.
Licked the salt off the rim like a chocolate truffle.
She clicked her boots over to my end of the bar,
Whispered, "If you've got wheels then I don't live far."
She had her way with me, didn't fake it,
Took a break, left me buck naked.
Well, I heard the door open and I turned around to hug her,
But my arms found her husband with a Louisville Slugger.

Nobody loves me like myself,
I ain't slow but I take my time.
Nobody loves me like myself,
I don't need a fur coat or a bottle of wine.
Another man's wife had me running for my life,
Should've listened to my head saying, "Somethin' ain't right, son."
Nobody loves me like myself,
So mama just let me be.
