Intro: I've been down hearted, baby Ever since the day we met I've been down hearted, baby Ever since the day we met You know our love is nothing but the blues Baby, how blue can you get? You're evil when I'm with you, baby And you are jealous when we're apart 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 is 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 penthouse You said, "It was just a shack" I gave you seven children And now you wanna give 'em back 'Cause I've been down hearted, baby Ever since the day we met I said, our love is nothing but the blues Baby, how blue can you get?
