Been downhearted baby
ever since the day we met
I`ve been downhearted baby
ever since the day we met
Our love is nothin` but the blues
Baby how blue can you get
My love is like a fire
Your love is like a cigaret
My love is like a fire
But baby yours is like a cigaret
I watch you step down on it baby and crush it
Tell me how, tell me how, how blue can you get
You`re evil when I`m with you
and you`re jealous when we`re apart
Yes you`re evil when I`m with you baby
Lord have mercy, you`re jealous when we`re apart
How blue can you get
Hey that`s a writing in my heart
I gave you a brand new Ford
and you just 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 wanna give `em back
I`ve been downhearted baby
ever since the day we met
Our love is nothin` but the blues
Baby how blue can you get
