Lyrics:

Ma Rainey -
'Jealous Hearted Blues' Lyrics

You can have my money, baby, everything I own
But for God sakes leave my man alone

'cause I'm jealous, jealous
Jealous hearted me.
Lord I'm just jealous
Jealous as I can be

It takes a rocking chair to rock, a rubber ball to roll
Takes a man I love to satisfy my soul

Yes I'm jealous, jealous
Jealous hearted me
Lord I'm just jealous
Jealous as I can be

Got a range in my kitchen, cooks nice and brown
All I need is my man, to turn my damper down

Because I'm jealous, jealous
Jealous hearted me
Lord I'm just jealous
Jealous as I can be

Going to buy me a bulldog, to watch him while I sleep
Just to keep my man from making his midnight creep.

Yes I'm jealous, jealous
Jealous hearted me
Lord I'm just jealous
Jealous as I can be
