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 has got to promise me to be mine, all mine

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

I ain't never loved but three mens in my life

I ain't never loved but three men in my life

My father, my brother, the man that wrecked my life

It may be a week, it may be a month or two

It may be a week, it may be a month or two

But the day you quit me honey, it's coming home to you

I got the world in a jug, the stopper's in my hand

I got the world in a jug, the stopper's in my hand

I'm going to hold it until you come under my command
