She's a mean mistreater
and she don't mean me no good
She's a mean mistreater,
and the woman she don't mean me no good
Well you know I don't blame you baby,
I'd be the same way if I could
She's a mean mistreater,
and the girl mistreats me all the time
She's a mean mistreater,
and the little girl mistreats me all the time
Well you know you just wants to quit me darlin',
because you got that on your mind
Well you remember that Monday mornin' that I knocked up, up on your door
You had the nerve to tell me that you didn't love, me no more
Can't you remember baby,
when I knocked up on your door
Well you know you had the nerve to tell me that you,
didn't love me no more
Well you know it's lonesome you know it's lonesome,
when you sleepin', all by yourself
The little girl that you lovin',
she lovin' someone else
And it's lonesome,
sleepin' by yourself
Well you know the little woman that you involved with now,
she is loving someone else
