Down-Hearted Blues

Gee, but it’s hard to love someone when that someone don’t love you
I’m so disgusted, heartbroken, 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 he’s got to promise to be mine, all mine
If I could only find the man oh how happy I would be
To the good Lord ev’ry night I pray
Please send my man back to me
I’ve almost worried myself to death wond’ring why he went away
But just wait and see he’s gonna want me back some sweet day
Trouble, trouble, I’ve had it all my days
Trouble, trouble, I’ve had it all my days
It seems that trouble’s going to follow me to my grave
Got the world in a jug, the stopper’s in my hand
Got the world in a jug
The stopper’s in my hand
Going to hold it, baby, till you come under my command
Say, I ain’t never loved but three men in my life
No, I ain’t never loved but three men in my life
'T'was my father, brother and the man who wrecked my life
'Cause he mistreated me and he drove me from his door
Yeah, he mistreated me and he drove me from his door
But the good book says you’ll reap just what you sow
Oh, it may be a week and it may be a month or two
Yes, it may be a week and it may be a month or two
But the day you quit me honey, it’s coming home to you
Oh, I walked the floor and I wrung my hands and cried
Yes, I walked the floor and I wrung my hands and cried
Had the down hearted blues and couldn’t be satisfied
