How come bad love sticks around so long,
why does the pain take up so much time?
How come the bad love sticks around so long -
and the good love is so hard to find?

You know I've had the blues, baby,
damn right I've had the blues!
They say that life is full of blues, woman,
it's just one thing you'll never lose.

Some good women have up and left me,
yeah well some good ones, they went away.
Some good women they left and hurt me -
and I hurt some good ones in my day.

You know I've had the blues, baby,
how come the pain takes up so much time?
Some fine women they left and hurt me -
and well you know... that good love is so hard to find.
