I've been downhearted baby Ever since the day we met I said I've been downhearted 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 And you are jealous when we're apart Yes, I said you're evil You're so evil when I'm with you, baby And you are jealous when we're apart How blue can you get, baby? The answer's is right here in my heart I gave you a brand-new Ford You said I want a Cadillac I bought you a ten dollar dinner You said thanks for the snack I let you live in my penthouse You said it was just a shack I gave you seven children And now you want to give them back Yes, I've been downhearted baby Ever since the day we met I said our love is nothing but the blues Baby, how blue can you get?
