How Blue Can You Get

I've been down hearted baby

ever since the day we met

I've been down hearted baby

ever since the day we met



our love is nothing but the blues

baby, how blue can you get?



my love is like a fire

your love is like a cigarette

my love is like a fire

but baby yours is like a cigarette

I watched 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 are jealous when we're apart

you're evil

you're so evil when I'm with you baby

and you are jealous when we're apart

how blue can you get baby?

the answer is right here in my heart



I gave you a brand new ford

and you said "i want a Cadillac"

I bought you a ten dollar dinner

and 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 to give 'em back!



yes i've been downhearted baby

ever since the day we met

our love is nothing but the blues baby

baby, how blue can you get?
