Do Ladies Get The Blues

I'm breaking my back in the morning

Working night and day

Gonna bring home all the bacon, have a place to stay

Oh baby, it's not a life that I would choose

I wanna know, wanna know, do ladies get the blues?

Well, I'm sitting here at midnight

Thinking of you baby 'til three

Thinking of how I live a life of luxury, baby

Are you asking for the proof?

You wanna know, wanna know, do ladies get the blues?

Yeah, do ladies, do ladies get the blues?

I wanna know, hey

I wanna know, little girl

Do ladies get the blues?

Yes, they do

The ladies they like to shop

Their closets, they fill

They buy for the dress, send them in the bill, baby

I ain't rich like how it used to be

I wanna know, wanna know, do ladies get the blues?

Well, I made up your bed this morning

Marked your tracks last night

I pick up on your mess, boy, I feed your appetite

Baby, you're gonna make me blow a fuse

You wanna know, wanna know, do ladies get the blues?

You go to the beauty shop

You're there from ten to two

You come home full of gossip, a trunk full of shampoo

Baby, I'm just looking for some clues

I wanna know, wanna know, do ladies get the blues?

Hey, you're singing a song I don't like

You're singing way off-key

You keep up that mess, boy, you ain't getting close to me

Baby, baby, this is a fight you're gonna lose

You wanna know, darling, do ladies get the blues?

He-he-he-he-hey

He-he-he-he-hey

Whoa, baby, hey

He-he-he-he-hey

I wanna know, wanna know, do ladies get the blues?

Yes, they do
