[Verse 1]
I just simply cannot ever understand
Why I can never keep a man
For when I start to think that all my trouble's gone
Somebody's got my man
I'm in this wide world all alone
No one that I can call my own
Lord, I'm blue as I can be
It's a low down pain to me
[Verse 2]
I'm lower down than I've ever been before
I'm lower down than I've ever been before
If I can ease this pain, I ain't going down no more
[Verse 3]
There goes my daddy, who'll run and call him?
I mean my pretty papa, bring him back, Lord
Goes my daddy, who'll run and bring him back?
There goes the man that I really like
[Verse 4]
I'm going to buy mе a bulldog to watch him while I sleep
I'm going to buy me a bulldog to watch him while I sleep
For hе's so doggone crooked, he might make a midnight creep
[Verse 5]
For that man I had is paining me to lose
For that man I had is paining me to lose
And I can't shake off these low down painful blues
