I got a woman mean as she can be
Yeah I got a woman mean as she can be
Sometimes I think she's almost as mean as me, oh oh
A black cat up died of fright
'Cos she crossed my path last night
Pretty baby, I got a woman mean as she can be
Sometimes I think she's almost as mean as me, yeah yeah
(Mean mean woman blues, mean mean woman blues) yeah
(Mean mean woman blues, mean mean woman blues) hey hey I know
(Mean mean woman blues, mean mean woman blues)
Well a black cat up died of fright
'Cos she crossed my path last night
Well I got a, got a woman mean as she can be
Sometimes I think she's almost as mean as me
Hey hey (mean mean woman blues)
Just a little bit softer (mean mean woman blues)
I wanna hear it (mean mean woman blues)
Yeah (mean mean woman blues)
Sometimes (mean mean woman blues)
Hey I got to move on (mean mean woman blues)
Hey hey (mean mean woman blues)
Oh oo oh oo (mean mean woman blues)
Oo oo oo (mean mean woman blues)
What'd I say (mean mean woman blues)
Sometimes (mean mean woman blues)
Just just just (mean mean woman blues)
Just a little bit softer (mean mean woman blues)
I wanna hear it (mean mean woman blues)
Hum mean (mean mean woman blues)
Mean (mean mean woman blues)
I've got it right now (mean mean woman blues)
Just a little bit louder (mean mean woman blues)
Hey hey hey (mean mean woman blues)
