Down Hearted Blues |
| Gee, but it’s hard to love someone when that someone don’t love you! |
| I’m so disgusted, heart-broken, too; |
| I’ve got those down-hearted blues; |
| Once I was crazy 'bout a man; |
| he mistreated me all the time, |
| The next man I get has got to promise me to be mine, all mine! |
| Trouble, trouble, I’ve had it all my days, |
| Trouble, trouble, I’ve had it all my days; |
| It seems like trouble going to follow me to my grave. |
| I ain’t never loved but three mens in my life; |
| I ain’t never loved but three men in my life: |
| My father, my brother, the man that wrecked my life. |
| It may be a week, it may be a month or two, |
| It may be a week, it may be a month or two, |
| But the day you quit me, honey, it’s comin' home to you. |
| I got the world in a jug, the stopper’s in my hand, |
| I got the world in a jug, the stopper’s in my hand, |
| I’m gonna hold it until you meet some of my demands. |
