Lyrics How Blue Can You Get? (a.k.a. Downhearted) - B.B. King

I've been down hearted, baby
Ever since the day we met
I said, I've been down hearted, baby
Ever since the day we met
You know our love is nothing but the blues
Baby, how blue can you get?

You're evil when I'm with you, baby
And you are jealous when we're apart
I said, 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
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 was just a shack"
I gave seven children
And now you wanna give 'em back

'Cause I've been down hearted, baby
Ever since the day we met
I said, our love is nothing but the blues
Baby, how blue can you get?
