| Ah, I'm a mean, mean woman, | |
| I don't mean no one man, no good, no. | |
| 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. | |
| Oh, Lord, I once had a daddy, | |
| He said he'd give me everything in sight. | |
| Once had a daddy, | |
| Said he'd give me everything in sight. | |
| Yes, he did. | |
| So I said, 'Honey, I want the sunshine, | |
| You take the stars out of the night. | |
| Come on and give 'em to me, babe, 'cause I want 'em right now.' | |
