Lyrics:

You're a mean mistreating mama, and you don't mean me no good
You're a mean mistreating mama, and you don't mean me no good
And I don't blame you baby, I'd be the same way if I could

You say you're going to leave me, well you say you going away
You say you're going to leave me, well you say you going away
That's all right baby, maybe you'll come back home some day

Now you're a mean mistreater, and you mistreats me all the time
Now you're a mean mistreater, and you mistreats me all the time
Now I tried to love you, swear but you won't pay that no mind

Can you remember mama, in the morning I knocked upon your door
Can you remember mama, in the morning I knocked upon your door
You had the nerve to tell me, that you didn't want me no more

Ain't it lonesome, sleeping all by yourself
Ain't it lonesome, sleeping all by yourself
When the one that you love, is loving someone else
