SPOKEN: Ha, ha,ha! I hate to tell you, mama, but I'm sure here
You can have my money, all I own, but, God, please leave my gal alone,
Oh I'm jealous, jealous, jealous-hearted, see?
So jealous, I'm jealous as I can't sleep
I got a range in my kitchen, bakes nice and brown, all I need's someone to turn my damper down
'Cause I'm jealous, jealous, jealous-hearted, see?
So jealous, jealous as I can't sleep
It take a rockin' chair to rock, a rubber ball to roll, takes the gal I love, satisfy my soul
You know I'm jealous, jealous, jealous-hearted, see?
So jealous, jealous as I can't sleep
I know the mens don't like me 'cause I speaks my mind, all the women crazy 'bout me 'cause I takes my time
Oh I'm jealous, jealous, jealous-hearted, see?
So jealous, jealous as I can't sleep
I left my wife and baby settin' on the doorstep cryin', I got a house full of chillun, there ain't nary one mine
Oh, I'm jealous, jealous, jealous-hearted, see?
So jealous, jealous as I can't sleep
I says I got love like I have it in your home, I can keep it turned off or I can turn it on
Oh I'm jealous, jealous, jealous-hearted, see?
So jealous, jealous as I can't sleep
Says, hello Central, give me two-three-nine, what takes to get at these hips of mine
Oh I'm jealous, jealous, jealous-hearted, see?
So jealous, jealous as I can't sleep
Ah some folks say them blues ain't bad, that must not've been, said, them blues I had
Oh I'm jealous, jealous, jealous-hearted, see?
So jealous, jealous as I can't sleep
I says, I can't help, mama, what you do, you can tell the world I got those jealous-hearted blues
Oh I'm jealous, jealous, jealous-hearted, see?
So jealous, jealous as I can't sleep
I says, stop still, mama, let me give you my egvice {sic}, If I catch you with a man it's gonna be too tight
Oh I'm jealous, jealous, jealous-hearted, see?
So jealous, jealous as I can't sleep
