Down Hearted Blues Songtext
von Eilen Jewell

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
Well, it seems that trouble's goin′ to follow me to my grave

I ain't never loved but three men 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, maybe a month or two
It may be a week, maybe a month or two
But the day you quit me, honey, it's coming home to you

I′ve got the world in a jug, the stopper's in my hand
I've got the world in a jug, the stopper′s in my hand
I′m gonna hold it until you then come under my command
