I used to try to tell you
What life was all about
But every time I tell you
Your face it looks in doubt
I did my best to help you girl
In every way I know
But you're not changed
You're still the same
And now I'm feelin' low
I got the blues
And it's gettin' me down
You better become a woman
Or I might not be around
Well I can't give you money
Or a brand new Cadillac
Like all those lovers who say I love you
Then they take it back
I did my best to give you something
That you never owned
But what'd I get, in return
Not Love but just a loan
I got the blues
And it's gettin' me down
You better become a woman
Or I might not be around
In love with lovin'
