"How Blue Can You Get" lyrics

Joe Bonamassa & Warren Haynes Lyrics

"How Blue Can You Get"
(originally by B.B. King)

I've been down hearted baby
Ever since the day we met
You know I've been down hearted baby
Ever since the day we met
Our love is nothing but the blues
Baby, how blue can you get?

You're evil when I'm with you, baby
And you're jealous when we're apart
You're evil when I'm with you, baby
And you're jealous when we're apart
How blue can you get baby
The answer is right down here in my heart

I bought 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 just a shack
I gave you seven children
And now you wanna give them back

Oh baby

I've been down hearted baby
Ever since the day we met
Our love is nothing but the blues
Baby, how blue can you get?
