Well when the sun rose this morning
I was feeling mighty bad
My baby said goodmoring hell it made me mad
Because i was evil evil hearted me
Down right evil evil as a man can be
Well she even cooked my breakfast
And she brought to my bed
I took a sip of coffee
And threw the cup at her head
Because i was evil evil hearted me
Yeah i'm down right evil evil as a man can be
I don't even care if my baby leaves me flat
I got forty eleven others if it comes to that
She knows i'm evil evil hearted me
Down right evil evil as a man can be
My deep sea diver with a stroke
That can't go wrong
Yeah i'm a deep sea diver with a
Stroke that can't go wrong
I can scrape the bottom
And my wind holds out so long
I bought me a coffee grinder
The best one i could find
Yeah i bought me coffee grinder
I got the best one i could find
So she could grind my coffee
Cause she's got a brand new grind
I boiled her first cabbage
And i made it oh so hot
I boiled her first cabbage
And i made it oh so hot
And when i put in the bacon
Lord it overflowed the pot
So when you get good loving
Don't you go and spread the news
When you get good loving baby
Don't go and spread the news
Cause your man will leave you
With those empty bed blues
