I've been down hearted baby

ever since the day we met

I said I've been down hearted baby

ever since the day we met

our love is nothing but the blues, woman

baby, how blue can you get?



You're evil when I'm with you, baby

and you're jealous when we're apart

I said You're evil when I'm with you, baby

and you're jealous when we're apart

how blue can you get baby

the answer is right here in my heart



I gave you a brand new Ford

But you said: I want a Cadillac

I bought you a ten dollar dinner

and you said: thanks for the snack

I let you live in my pent house

you said it just a shack

I gave seven children

and now you wanna give them back

I said I've been down hearted baby

ever since the day we met

our love is nothing but the blues

baby, how blue can you get?
