She make me mean
yeah Lawd she make me mean.


I can't believe this old blues song not in the database. I heard it back in early 1960s. Maybe Odetta recorded ir? Does anyone have more lyrics?

Thanks in advance,

CBJames

Ken Schatz and Alison Kelley recorded it as "Heavy-Hipted Woman" on their CD, "The NexTradition." Great CD, by the way, and I'm only a little bit prejudiced. ;<)

Cheers,
Nancy

The 'Who' recorded it

B side to 'I can't explain' I think

My sister brought the record and as a six year old, I thought the lyrics were great

Also couldn't stop playing 'got to hurry' by the Yardbirds

My parents were horrified
