Cab Calloway & His Orchestra
Down-Hearted Blues
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. [Heavily scatted] All the dirt you done to me Is bound to come back to you.
