(leonard feather, 1946)
[a side of youngblood yb 1077, 1976]
I`ve been downhearted baby
Ever since the first day that we met
I`ve been downhearted baby
Ever since the first day that we met
Your love ain`t nothing but the blues
Woman, how blue can ya` get ?
You`re evil when i`m with ya`
And oh, you`re jealous when we`re apart
Good god, you`re jealous when i`m with ya` honey
And you`re evil when we`re apart
Your love ain`t nothing but the blues
Woman, how blue can ya`, can ya` get ?
Oh
You`re evil when i`m with ya`
I bought you a brand new car
You said `i want a cadillac`
I bought you a ten-dollar dinner
You said `thank you for the snack`
I let you live in my penthouse
You said `that ain`t nothing but a shack`
I gave you seven children
And now you wanna give `em back !
Oh, i`ve been downhearted baby
Good god, i`ve been downhearted since we met
And listen, your love ain`t nothing but the blues
Woman, how blue can ya` get ?
Yeah, oh
