Monette Moore — Down Hearted Blues lyrics

Lyrics

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 downhearted 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
And it seems like trouble will follow me to my grave
I never loved but three men in my life (Play that thing, boy!)
I never loved but three men in my life
My father, my brother, the man who wrecked my life
It may be a week, it may be a month or two
It may be a week, and it may be a month or two
All the days you quit to me, it’s comin' home to you
I’ve got the world in a jug, the stopper in my hand
I’ve got the world in a jug, the stopper in my hand
You want to be my daddy, do as I command
