These are the lyrics Dylan--the first to record the song in 1962--used for the album he did.
Well I don't know why I love you like I do Nobody in the world can get along with you. You got the ways of a devil sleeping in a lion's den I come home last night you wouldn't even let me in.
Well sometimes you're as sweet as anybody want to be When you get a crazy notion of jumpin' all over me Well you give me the blues I guess you're satisfied An' you give me the blues I wanna lay down and die.
I helped you when you had no shoes on your feet, pretty mama I helped you when you had no food to eat. You're the kind of woman I just don't understand You're takin' all my money and give it to another man.
Well you're the kinda woman makes a man lose his brain You're the kinda woman drives a man insane You give me the blues, I guess you're satisfied You give me the blues, I wanna lay down and die
Well you give me the blues, I wanna lay down and die
