Lyrics Down in the Mouth - Delbert McClinton, Self-Made Men

Down in the Mouth

It’s over
The jig is up
She told me she don’t want to keep in touch
That’s why I’m down in the mouth
I got the blues
She called me lazy
Said «You don’t try
«Now you can kiss your sugar mama goodbye»
Love stinks
That’s why I got the blues
Now if you wanna see what happens when a woman lies
Take a look at all of these tears I’ve cried
It’s a hard way to go
That’s why I got the blues
Well now, the one thing I don’t understand
She made me think I was the only man
Then she goes and do somethin' like this
That’s why I got the blues
