Duke Ellington — I Got It Bad and That Ain’t Good

[Verse 1] Never treats me sweet and gentle the way he should I got it bad and that ain't good My poor heart is sentimental, not made of wood I got it bad and that ain't good [Bridge] But when the fish are jumpin', and Friday rolls around My man and me, we gin some, and pray some, and sin some [Verse 2] He don't love me like I love him, nobody could I got it bad and that ain't good [Instrumental Break] [Outro] Like a lonely weeping willow lost in the wood Lord, I got it bad and that ain't good
