Lyrics
The Mean Mama Blues
Got a little woman and she's so fine!
Spends all my money, she blows my mind!
I'm telling you, what's a man to do?
She's a pretty, pretty woman ,
But I got the Mean Mama Blues
I worked all day and into the night!
The way she spends my money you know it ain't right!
I'm telling you, what's a man to do?
She's a pretty, pretty woman ,
But I got the Mean Mama Blues
Baby, when I'm with you!
Don't you know that I love ya?
Lord knows that I do!
I just can't help myself,
I got the mean Mama blues
I sure would like to leave her, you know if I could!
The State'll do me in, you know that they would
I'm telling you, what's a man to do?
She's a pretty, pretty woman ,
But I got the Mean Mama Blues
Baby, when I'm with you!
I do my best to forget her, you know that I do!
But I just can't help myself,
I got the mean Mama blues!
I tell you she don't feed me, why should I try?
You know that she don't love me, it may be a lie!
But I'm here, baby with you!
And I'll tell you anything, so you'll do,
what I want to do!
Got a little woman and she's so fine!
Spends all my money she blows my mind!
I'm telling you, what's a man to do?
She's a pretty, pretty woman ,
But I got the Mean Mama Blues
