Chuck Leavell - Mean Mistreater lyrics

rate me

You're a mean mistreating mama,

and you don't mean me no good

Yes you're a mean mistreating mama,

and you sure don't mean me no good

I don't blame you baby,

I'd be the same way if I could

You say you're gonna leave me,

well you say you're going away

Oh you say you're gonna leave me,

oh you say you're going away

That's alright baby, maybe you'll come back home one day, yeah

Now you're a mean mean mistreater,

and you mistreat me all the time

Uh, oh baby, you're a mean mistreater,

you mistreat me all the time

Oh yeah, oh I tried to love you baby,

but I swear you won't pay me no mind, no

Now do you remember mama

In the morning when I knocked upon your door

You had the nerve to tell me

That you just didn't want me no more

I remember that day,

In the morning you knocked on my door, oh yeah

You had the nerve to tell me

You just didn't want me no more, no, no

Now you're lonesome baby, sleeping all by yourself

When the one that you're love is sleeping

With someone else

Ain't it lonesome baby, sleeping all by yourself

When the one you love, lord have mercy

He's in love with somebody else.
