You're a mean pickin' mama You've gone too far this time You're a mean pickin' mama You left me way behind Used to be you had fun with me Drinking that stuff from Tennessee But you ain't the gal you used to be You're a mean pickin' mama
You're a mean pickin' mama You sure can play the blues You're a mean pickin' mama I know you paid your dues We don't talk, we got nothin' to say You just wanna play that guitar all day A-rockin' and rollin' your life away You're a mean pickin' mama
You're a mean pickin' mama That much I know is true You're a mean pickin' mama I had enough of you You sure can sing, you sure can play You sure can rock on, that I'll say But please don't throw your man away You're a mean pickin' mama
