Barry Goudreau - Mean Woman Blues lyrics

rate me

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

She said, I know you're out seein' some whore

And I'm gonna even the score

So baby sit down

She said you and me are gonna have another round, sucker

She said in this house female brutality

Has become a reality

I said WOW!

Oh baby, now enough is enough

Now put down that hammer honey please

OW!

YEAH

OW!
