Black Minnie, Black Minnie

You know you ain't doin' me right

But the day you quit me, Black Minnie

I swear, that's the day you die

Black Minnie, you know I love you

An I love you for myself

And I'd ruther be wit' you, Black Minnie

An to be wit' anyone else

I give ya my money, Black Minnie

An ev'rything that you tol' me you need

An one time done come an caught me

Baby, wearin' my BVD's

Now, Black Minnie, Black Minnie

I'm 'on beg you one mo' time

An if you don't suit me

I'm 'on try to play the line

Black Minnie, Black Minnie

What in the world are you tryin' a-do?

I b'lieve try an love me, Black Minnie

And my partner, too

<ha-ha-ha-ha>

'Play a little'

(guitar)

Yeah, hey

Black Minnie, Black Minnie

What you tryin' a-do?

Now, Black Minnie, Black Minnie

You know you don't mean me no good

'Cause you goin' out wit' the man

That live right above my neighborhood

'Play it boss some'

(guitar)

Yeah!

Yeah!

Ah-ha-ha-ha

Black Minnie, Black Minnie

I swear I'm gettin' through wit' you

Black Minnie, Black Minnie

Yeah, you stays in the dark

An you know good an well

I ain't gon' never give you my last dollar

<ha-ha-yeah-hey>

Black Minnie, Black Minnie

I'm 'on try you one mo' time

An if you don't do

I'm 'on break yo' neck or try.
