I Got It Bad Songtext
von Rosemary Clooney

The poets say that all who love are blind
But I′m in love and I know what time it is!
The Good Book says "Go seek and ye shall find
"Well, I have sought and my what a climb it is!
My life is just like the weatherIt changes with the hours
When he's near I′m fair and warmer
When he's gone I'm cloudy with showers; in emotion
Like the ocean it′s either sink or swim
When a woman loves a man like I love him
Never treats me sweet and gentle the way he should
I got it bad and that ain′t good!
My poor heart is sentimental not made of wood
I got it bad and that ain't good! But when the weekend′s over and Monday rolls aroun'
I end up like I start out just cryin′ my heart out
He don't love me like I love him nobody could
I got it bad and that ain′t good
Like a lonely weeping willow lost in the wood
I got it bad and that ain't good!
And the things I tell my pillow no woman should
I got it bad and that ain't good!
Tho folks with good intentions ell me to save my tears
I′m glad I′m mad about him I can't live without him
Lord above me make him love me the way he should
I got it bad and that ain′t good
