Turtle Blues

Ah, I'm a mean, mean woman
And I don't mean no one man, no good
I'm a mean, mean woman
I don't mean no one man, no good
I just treats 'em like I wants to
I never treats 'em, honey like I should
I guess I'm just like a turtle
That's hidin' underneath its hard-ass shell
Whoa, oh, like a turtle
Hidin' underneath its hard-ass shell
But you know I'm very well protected
I know this goddamn life too well
You can call me, you can call me evil
I've been called much of some things around
Don't ya know I have!
Whoa, call me mean or call me evil
I've been called much of some things, all things around
Yeah, but I'm gonna take good care of janis
Honey, ain't no one gonna dog me down
Yeah, yeah
