Down-hearted Blues

- Cab Calloway -



Gee, but it's hard to love someone

When that someone don't love you;

I'm so disgusted, heart-broken, too

I've got those down-hearted blues.

I was crazy 'bout a gal,

She mistreated me all the time,

Next gal I get, she's got to promise to

Be mine, all mine.

'Cause she mistreated me,

And she drove me from her door;

Yes, she mistreated me,

She drove me from her door,

But the Good Book says,

She'll reap just what she'll sow.

I ain't never loved but three women in all my life,

I never loved but three women in all my life,

That was my mother, my sister, and the gal that wrecked my life.

[Heavily scatted]

All the dirt you done to me

Is bound to come back to you.
