I've Got It Bad And That Ain't Good

I've Got It Bad And That Ain't Good
music by Duke Ellington (left)
lyric by Paul Francis Webster (right)

Never treats me sweet and gentle, the way she 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.

But when the weekend's over and Monday rolls around,
I end up where I start out, just crying my heart out.

Lord above, make her love me the way she should,
I got it bad and that ain't good.
I got it bad and that ain't good...
