MISTREATIN' MAMA (Furry Lewis, c. 1928.) If your heart ain't iron, it must be marble stone. (2x) For you a mistreatin' mama, baby, as sure as you born. I can tell from a liver just what her hold on me. (2x) You treat me just like somebody you ain't never seen. I got a woman in Cuba. Got a woman in Spain. (2x) I got a woman in Chicago, and I'm scared to call her name. I got nineteen women. All I want's one more. (2x) If the one more suit me, I'm'na let the nineteen go. I coulda had religion, Lord, this very day. (2x) But the womens and whiskey, Lord, won't let me pray. I can sit here, look on Jackson Avenue. (2x) I can see everything that my good woman do. Sometime I believe I will. Sometime I believe I won't. (2x) Sometime I believe I do. Sometime I believe I don't. @blues filename[ MISTREAT XX |
