"Down-Hearted Blues" lyrics

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

All the dirt you done to me
Is bound to come back to you
