Jealous Hearted Blues by Ma Rainey Lyrics

Genre: pop | Year: 1924

[Verse 1]
You can have my money and everything I own
But for God's sake, leave my man alone
'Cause I'm jealous, jealous, jealous-hearted me
Lord, I'm just jealous, jealous as I can be

[Verse 2]
It takes a rockin' chair to rock, a rubber ball to roll
Takes a man I love to satisfy my soul
Yes, I'm jealous, jealous, jealous-hearted me
Lord, I'm just jealous, jealous as I can be

[Instrumental Break]
Lord, Lord
[?]

[Verse 3]
Got a range in my kitchen, cooks nice and brown
All I need is my man to turn my damper down
'Cause I'm jealous, jealous, jealous-hearted me
Lord, I'm just jealous, jealous as I can be
[Verse 4]
Gonna buy me a bulldog to watch him while I sleep
To keep my man from makin' his midnight creep
Yes, I'm jealous, jealous, jealous-hearted me
Lord, I'm just jealous, jealous as I can be
