Ive been down hearted
Ever since the day we met
Baby ive been down hearted
Ever since the day we met
Our love is nothing but the blues
Baby, how blue can you get?

My love burned like a fire
Your love burned like a cigarette
Yes my love burned like a fire
Your love burned like a cigarette
Yes i've seen you put it down and crush it
Baby, how blue can you get?

Oh youre evil when im with you, baby
And youre jealous when were apart
Yes youre evil when im with you, baby
And youre jealous when were apart
How blue can you get baby
The answer's 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 ive been down hearted baby
Ever since the day we met
Our love is nothing but the blues
Tell me how blue can you get?
