How Blue Can You Get? [Live in Cook County Jail]

Leonard Feather, Jane Feather

I've been downhearted, baby
Ever since the day we met
Baby, I said I've been downhearted, 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's 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 you seven children
And now you want to give 'em back

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

Thank you, thank you very much
Thank you so much
