| The poets say that all who love are blind; |
| But I’m in love and I know what time it is! |
| The Good Book says «Go seek and ye shall find.» |
| Well, I have sought and my what a climb it is! |
| My life is just like the weather |
| It changes with the hours; |
| When he’s near I’m fair and warmer |
| When he’s gone I’m cloudy with showers; |
| In emotion, like the ocean it’s either sink or swim |
| When a woman loves a man like I love him. |
| Never treats me sweet and gentle the way he should; |
| I Got It Bad And That Ain’t Good! |
| My poor heart is sentimental not made of wood |
| I Got It Bad And That Ain’t Good! |
| But when the weekend’s over and Monday rolls aroun' |
| I end up like I start out just cryin' my heart out |
| He don’t love me like I love him nobody could |
| I Got It Bad And That Ain’t Good |
| Like a lonely weeping willow lost in the wood |
| I Got It Bad And That Ain’t Good! |
| And the things I tell my pillow no woman should |
| I Got It Bad And That Ain’t Good! |
| Tho folks with good intentions ell me to save my tears |
| I’m glad I’m mad about him I can’t live without him |
| Lord above me make him love me the way he should |
| I Got It Bad And That Ain’t Good. |
