Down in the Mouth - Delbert McClinton, Self-Made Men

It’s over

The jig is up

She told me she don’t want to keep in touch

That’s why I’m down in the mouth

I got the blues

She called me lazy

Said «You don’t try

«Now you can kiss your sugar mama goodbye»

Love stinks

That’s why I got the blues

Now if you wanna see what happens when a woman lies

Take a look at all of these tears I’ve cried

It’s a hard way to go

That’s why I got the blues

Well now, the one thing I don’t understand

She made me think I was the only man

Then she goes and do somethin' like this

That’s why I got the blues
