Downhearted
by 
recording of probably 1962 
from 
Blues in My Heart (Crown CLP-5309) 
& 
Heart Full of Blues (United 7703) 
I've been downhearted 
Ever since the day we met 
Baby I've been down hearted 
Ever since the day we met 
I've been loving nothing but the blues 
Baby, how blue can you get? 
My love burned like a fire 
Your love burned like a cigarette 
Yes, my love burned like a fire 
Your love burned like a cigarette 
Yes, I've seen you put it down and crush it 
Baby, how blue can you get? 
Oh you're evil when I'm with you, baby 
And you're jealous when we're apart 
Yes, you're evil when I'm with you, baby 
And you're jealous when we're apart 
How blue can you get baby 
The answer's right here in my heart 
I gave you a brand new Ford 
But 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 just a shack 
I gave seven children 
And now you wanna give them back 
I said, "I've been down hearted baby, 
ever since the day we met" 
I've been loving nothing but the blues 
Tell me how blue can you get?
