|
I got married it was out of fright |
|
She said yes - I didn't wanna fight |
|
I got bruises up and down my arm |
|
That woman loves to do me harm |
|
Oh baby, well I got me the mean woman blues |
|
Now listen - this is just the way it happened |
|
I went out to have a drink with the boys |
|
I wasn't breaking the law |
|
I came home I didn't make much noise |
|
She hit me right smack in the jaw |
|
Well the next thing I know here comes a table and chair |
|
I fell down she picked me up by the hair |
|
She said, I know you're out seein' some whore |
|
And I'm gonna even the score |
|
Baby alright |
|
Oh you know that woman loves to fight |
|
Lord she can kick, scratch and bite |
|
Got me shaking all night |
|
Oh baby, well I got me the mean woman blues |
|
She got a heart that's cold as ice |
|
You cross her once, you won't cross her twice |
|
There's no tellin' once her mind is made |
|
It's like steppin' on a hand grenade |
|
Oh baby, well I got me the mean woman blues |
|
Now listen up |
|
I went out for a walk in the park |
|
Just gettin' some air |
|
I came home, and it was just after dark |
|
She met me at the top of the stairs |
|
Well the next thing I know she began to wail |
|
I went flyin' somewhere over the rail |
|
She said I know you're out doing me wrong |
|
But honey it won't be for long |
|
So baby sit down |
|
She said you and me are gonna have another round |
|
She said in this house female brutality |
|
Has become a reality |
|
I said wow |
|
Oh baby alright |
|
Oh you know that woman loves to fight |
|
She can kick, scratch, and bite |
|
Got me shaking all night |
|
Oh baby, well I got me the mean woman blues |
|
I got married, it was out of fright |
|
She said yes, I didn't wanna fight |
|
I got bruises up and down my arm |
|
That woman loves to do me harm |
|
Oh baby, well I got me the mean woman blues |
|
Now tell me if you think this is fair |
|
I went out to have a drink with the boys |
|
I wasn't breaking the law |
|
I came home I didn't make much noise |
|
She hit me right smack in the jaw |
|
Well the next thing I know here comes a table and chair |
|
I fell down she picked me up by the hair |
