[Intro] [Verse] I been downhearted baby Ever since the day we met I been downhearted baby Ever since the day we met Our love is nothing but the blues Tell me how blue can you get?   [Verse 2] 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?     I know because I answer right here with my heart [Bridge] I bought you a brand new Ford Said "I want a Cadillac" I took you for a ten-dollar dinner You said "Thanks for the snack" Let you stay here in my penthouse You said "It was a chack" 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? [Solo] [Verse 4] I been downhearted baby Ever since the day we met I been downhearted baby Ever since the day we met Our love is nothing but the blues How blue can you get?
