How Blue Can You Get

I‘ve been downhearted baby

Ever since the day we met

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?

You're evil when I'm with you

And you're jealous when we're apart

You're evil when I'm with you

And you're jealous when we're apart

How blue can you get?

Because I right here with my heart

I bought you a brand new Ford

Said, "I want a Cadillac"

I bought you a ten-dollar dinner

You said, "Thanks for the snack"

Let you live in my penthouse

You said, "It was a shack"

Gave you seven children

Now you wanna give them back

I've been downhearted, baby

Ever since the day we met

Oh, our love ain't nothing but the blues

Tell me, how blue can you get?
