Lyrics:

Been downhearted baby*
(Ever since the day we met
(I've been downhearted baby
(Ever since the day we met
(Our love is nothin' but the blues(
Baby how blue can you get((

My love is like a fire(
Your love is like a cigaret(
My love is like a fire(
But baby yours is like a cigaret(
I watch you step down on it baby and crush it(
Tell me how, tell me how, how blue can you get((

You're evil when I'm with you(
And you're jealous when we're apart(
Yes you're evil when I'm with you baby(
Lord have mercy, you're jealous when we're apart(
How blue can you get
(Hey that's a writing in my heart

((I gave you a brand new Ford
(And you just said I want a Cadillac
(I bought you a ten dollar dinner
(You said Thanks for the snack
(I let you live in my penthouse(
You said it was just a shack
(I gave you seven children
(And now you wanna give 'em back

((I've been downhearted baby
(Ever since the day we met
(Our love is nothin' but the blues
(Baby how blue can you get
