I've got a mean woman, and she's always doing me wrong   Yes, you know she's mean, and she's always doing me wrong   I believe to my soul, I've got leave my home      She is a mean woman, oh, she never treats me right   Oh, mean and evil woman, and she never treats me right   Only go around every day, and don't come home 'til midnight      Lord, if only, only she would treat me fair   Oh, if I could get my baby, if could only get her to treat me fair   Oh, she would own me, yes, she would own me anywhere
