CYNDI LAUPER LYRICS - How Blue Can You Get?

"How Blue Can You Get?"



Been downhearted baby

Ever since the day we met

I've been downhearted baby

Ever since the day we met

Our love is nothin' but the blues


Baby how blue can you get





My love is like a fire


Your love is like a cigarette

My love is like a fire


But baby yours is like a cigarette

I watch you step down on it baby and crush it


Tell me how, tell me how, how blue can you get





You're evil when I'm with you


And you're jealous when we're apart


Yes you're evil when I'm with you baby


Lord have mercy, you're jealous when we're apart


How blue can you get

Hey that's a writing in my heart



I gave you a brand new Ford

And you just said I want a Cadillac

I bought you a ten dollar dinner

You said Thanks for the snack

I let you live in my penthouse


You said it was just a shack

I gave you seven children

And now you wanna give 'em back



I've been downhearted baby

Ever since the day we met

Our love is nothin' but the blues

Baby how blue can you get
