Mean Mama Blues
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
There’s lots of mean women on almost any street
Lord there’s lots of mean women on almost any street
But i’ve got the meanest mama that ever walked on two feet
That gal is so low down i often wonder why
Lord she’s so low down i often wonder why
That she keeps on living i guess she’s to mean to die
Now you trifling women always say you love your man
Lord you trifling women always say you love your man
And when he goes out the front door the back door lets a new man in
Now there’s two things in this world i don’t understand
Lord there’s two things in this world that i don’t understand
One of them is a woman the other ones a man
I’m gonna buy me a pistol i’ll think i’ll get a 44
Gonna buy me a pistol i’ll think i’ll get a 44
And when i get through shooting that girl won't step no more
