Lyrics

By the hourglass

* sweet little angel
I got a sweet little angel, I love the way she spreads her wings
I got a sweet little angel, I love the way she spreads her wings, now
She spread her wings around, I get joy in everything

Asked my baby for a nickel, she gave me a twenty dollar bill, now
I asked my baby for a nickel, she gave me a twenty dollar bill, now
Asked my baby for a drink of liquor, she gave me a whiskey still, ah

* it's my own fault
It's my own fault baby, treat me the way you wanna do now
It's my own fault baby, treat me the way you wanna do now
Cause when you were lovin me little woman
Ahhh, guess what? I didn't love you, no
Cmon now

* how blue can you get?
I been down-hearted baby, ever since the day that we met
I been down-hearted baby, ever since the day that we met
Our love is nothin but the blues, lord, how blue can you get?

Alright
I bought you a new ford, you said I want a cadillac
Bought you a ten dollar dinner, you said thanks for the snack
Let you live in my penthouse, lord, you called it a shack
Gave you seven children and now you wanna give em back

Oh, I been down-hearted baby, ever since the day that we met darlin now
Now our love is nothin but the blues
Oh, how blue can you get?
