Ella Fitzgerald and Ella Fitzgerald & Her Famous Orchestra - I Got It Bad (And That Ain't Good)

Never treats me sweet and gentle
The way he should
I've got it bad
And that ain't good

My poor heart is so sentimental
Not made of wood
I've got it so bad
And that ain't good

But when the fish are jumpin'
And Friday rolls around
My man an' I, we gin some
We pray some, and sin some

He don't love me
Like I love him
No, nobody could
I got it bad
And that ain't good

Lord above me
Make him love me
The way he should
I got it bad
And that ain't good

Now, maybe I'm wrong
To feel the way I do
I know my heart will never take somebody new
Got it bad
And that ain't good
