Bemoaning Being the Nice Guy (based on "I Want To Be Somebody's Baby")

Why do woman always turn to me?
Why do they marry and date
Those who are abusive and anger prone?
Why must I be the one who is strong?
Why must I be the one always left alone?
Why must I be the one understanding?
Always letting her go free
Can't I be somebody's baby?
Can't somebody care about me?

Must my shoulder be available to cry on?
My shoulders are wet to the bone
Must I always be the friend to rely on?
I need a special someone of my own
Must I be the kindly advisor?
Must I be the encouraging fan?
Must I be the one thought to be wiser?
Who will let me be their man?

Why do woman always turn to me?
Why do they marry and date
Those who are abusive and anger prone?
Why must I be the one who is strong?
Why must I be the one always left alone?
Why must I be the one understanding?
Always letting her go free
Can't I be somebody's baby?
Can't somebody care about me?

I need to loved and nurtured
I need a sister and a mother
I need someone to hold my hand
Can't somebody worry and sweat about me?
Must I be busied and bothered?
Running around wringing my hands?

Who can I call at three in the morning?
Who will listen to my woes?
Who will be there when I'm mourning?
Who will embrace when my heart outflows?


Why do woman always turn to me?
Why do they marry and date
Those who are abusive and anger prone?
Why must I be the one who is strong?
Why must I be the one always left alone?
Why must I be the one understanding?
Always letting her go free
Can't I be somebody's baby?
Can't somebody care about me?

This is how I relate to this song's words. Here is the orignal:

Basically I'm bemoaning my singleness. I'll be 40 soon. Never been married. Have no children. Won't likely ever BE married. I've had lots of woman 'friends' and helped many through boyfriend issues and husband issues.
