THAT THING CALLED LOVE As recorded by Mamie Smith, 1920. VERSE: I'm worried in my mind. I'm worried all the time. My friend he told me today That he was going away and stay. Now I love him deep down in my heart, But the best of friends must part. Now I want somebody please To cure me of my love disease. CHORUS: That thing called love will make you sit and sigh. That thing called love that money cannot buy, Will make you sad, Will make you glad, Will even drive your mama mad. That thing called love has such a funny feelin'. That thing called love will set your brain a-reelin'. When you're alone, feeling blue, You're thinking 'bout someone that don't care for you; Then nobody knows what the thing called love will do.
