Baby, I've been downhearted Ever since the day we met Baby, I've been downhearted Ever since the day we met Our love is nothing but the blues Baby, how blue can you get? My love burns like a fire Your love burn like a cigarette Yes, my love burns like a fire Your love burn like a cigarette Yes, I've seen you put it down and crush it Baby, how blue can you get? Oh, you're evil when I'm with you, baby And you are jealous when we're apart Yes you're evil when I'm with you, baby And you are jealous when we're apart How blue can you get, baby? The answer's 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 I've been downhearted, baby Ever since the day we met Our love is nothing but the blues Tell me, how blue can you get?
