Jeff Healey Band, The - How Blue Can You Get Lyrics






I've been downhearted baby
Ever since the first day that we met
I've been downhearted baby
Ever since the first day that we met
Your love ain't nothing but the blues
Woman, how blue can ya' get?

You're evil when I'm with ya'
And oh, you're jealous when we're apart
Good God, you're jealous when I'm with ya' honey
And you're evil when we're apart
Your love ain't nothing but the blues
Woman, how blue can ya', can ya' get?

Oh
You're evil when I'm with ya'

I bought you a brand new car
You said "I want a Cadillac"
I bought you a ten-dollar dinner
You said "Thank you for the snack"
I let you live in my penthouse
You said "That ain't nothing but a shack"
I gave you seven children
And now you wanna give 'em back!

Oh, I've been downhearted baby
Good God, I've been downhearted since we met
And listen, your love ain't nothing but the blues
Woman, how blue can ya' get?

Yeah, oh

    I've tried, but I honestly can't find the words that sufficiently convey just how much I appreciate and love Jeff Healey.

  3. N.... M....

    Perfection, that intro made me want to weep. What a talent. Although I thought he’d be taller ....... 😀

  7. C.... S....

    This man was so amazing. This feeling, ideas and unbelieve playing. Thank god, saw him at two times with the great Sideman Philip Sayce.

  8. j.... ....

    JEFF HEALEY is One of a Kind !!!

    Dave Murphy Ain’t No Joke on them Keys either !!!

  9. S.... C....

    Un Gigante trascurato

  10. T.... 7....

    I had the privilege of seeing Jeff Healey live twice, and after the first time, I couldn't even look at my guitar for a week afterwards, that's how blown away I was! By the second time I saw him, I had become much more confident in my abilities as a guitarist, but I was still absolutely floored by what he could do. One of the most soulful players out there, and his loss was a very bad day for the blues, a very bad day indeed.

    And for all the doubters, Jeff had no vision whatsoever. In fact, he had no eyes; he lost his eyes to a rare form of cancer when he was a toddler, and that same cancer later came back and took his life. The only "eyes" Jeff had were made of glass.

  11. 8.... ....

    Complete blue perfection!

  12. S.... R....

    Jeff's feelin' those blues

    This guy was amazing. His phrasing, his leads, his timing, his singing, few can match this. Just the top dogs,...SRV, Albert King, BB king, Freddie King..Jeff was right up there. Being blind and playing in his lap, he never missed a lick. I love him. 

  38. R.... S....

  54. j.... ....

    First time i nitice Jeff was in the Roadhouse movie, at first i thougy it have to be some funny movietrik, a bliind man playing guitar. Shortly after i found music in my local musicshop and after i told everyone: he is the gratest guitarplayer ever.
    Pure and simply awersome.

  55. g.... ....

    He was really something else. The licks he plays are so intense, uniquely his and full of emotion. A true loss.

  56. s.... ....

    haha i love how he takes a sip of coke.
