The God-Why-Don't-You-Love-Me Blues

[BUDDY]
Hello folks we're into the Follies!
First though folks we'll pause for a mo'
No no folks you'll still get your jollies
It's just I got a problem that I think you should know.

See I've been very perturbed of late very upset
Very betwixt and between
The things that I want I don't seem to get
The things that I get--you know what I mean!

I've got those
"God-why-don't-you-love-me-oh-you-do-I'll-see-you-later"
Blues
That
"Long-as-you-ignore-me-you're-the-only-thing-that-matters"
Feelin
That
"If-I'm-good-enough-for-you-you're-not-good-enough"
and "Thank-you-for-the-present-but-what's-wrong-with-It?"
Stuff
Those
"Don't-come-any-closer-'cause-you-know-how-much-I-love-you"
Feelings
Those
"Tell-me-that-you-love-me-oh-you-did-I-gotta-run-now"
