Dallas - Ponce - Downhearted Blues 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 he's got to promise
To be mine, all mine
Trouble, trouble, I've had it all my days
Trouble, trouble, I've had it all my days
It seems that trouble's
Going to follow me to my grave
I ain't never loved but three men in my life
I ain't never loved but three men in my life
My father, my brother
And the man who wrecked my life
It may be a week
It may be a month or two
It may be a week
It may be a month or two
But the day you quit me honey,
It's coming home to you
I got the world in a jug, the stopper's in my hand
I got the world in a jug, the stopper's in my hand
I'm going to hold it, baby,
Until you come under my command"
