Story Behind The Song
Funny story on the title of the song. We were fishing and the our bass player was bringing the boat into shore hot, I roped the pole on the pier but boat started to swing out, when I called to my husband for help (he was in the back of the boat) he says "I Got Nothing" so I didn't fall in but we had a good laugh. The rest of the lyrics just came to me one day that had nothing to do with the song title but fit.

I got nothin
I got nothin
I got nothin
Since you left me alone
Where did you go
Why did you leave
Where did you go boy
I beggin you please
Come back baby I'm on my knees
Chorus
Don't understand why you left me
Don't understand why your gone
Don't understand why you left me
When I have loved you for so long
I got nothin since you left me alone
Repeat all after instrumental
