She said yes, I didn't wanna fight
I got bruises up and down my arm
That woman loves to do me harm
Oh baby, well I got me the mean woman blues
Now listen this is just the way it happened
I went out to have a drink with the boys
I wasn't breaking the law
I came home I didn't make much noise
She hit me right smack in the jaw
Well the next thing I know here comes a table and chair
I fell down she picked me up by the hair
She said, I know you're out seein' some whore
And I'm gonna even the score
Baby alright
Oh you know that woman loves to fight
Lord she can kick, scratch and bite
Got me shaking all night
Oh baby, well I got me the mean woman blues
She got a heart that's cold as ice
You cross her once, you won't cross her twice
There's no tellin' once her mind is made
It's like steppin' on a hand grenade
Oh baby, well I got me the mean woman blues
Now listen up
I went out for a walk in the park
Just gettin' some air
I came home, and it was just after dark
She met me at the top of the stairs
Well the next thing I know she began to wail
I went flyin' somewhere over the rail
She said I know you're out doing me wrong
But honey it won't be for long
So baby sit down
She said you and me are gonna have another round
She said in this house female brutality
Has become a reality
I said wow!
Oh baby alright
Oh you know that woman loves to fight
She can kick, scratch, and bite
Got me shaking all night
Oh baby, well I got me the mean woman blues
I got married, it was out of fright
She said yes, I didn't wanna fight
I got bruises up and down my arm
That woman loves to do me harm
Oh baby, well I got me the mean woman blues
Now tell me if you think this is fair
I went out to have a drink with the boys
I wasn't breaking the law
I came home I didn't make much noise
She hit me right smack in the jaw
Well the next thing I know here comes a table and chair
I fell down she picked me up by the hair
She said, I know you're out seein' some whore
And I'm gonna even the score
So baby sit down
She said you and me are gonna have another round, sucker
She said in this house female brutality
Has become a reality
I said wow!
Oh baby, now enough is enough
Now put down that hammer honey please
Ow!
Yeah
Ow!
I got married it was out of fright She said yes, I didn't wanna fight I got bruises up and down my arm That woman loves to do me harm Oh baby, well I got me the mean woman blues Now listen this is just the way it happened I went out to have a drink with the boys I wasn't breaking the law I came home I didn't make much noise She hit me right smack in the jaw Well the next thing I know here comes a table and chair I fell down she picked me up by the hair She said, I know you're out seein' some whore And I'm gonna even the score Baby alright Oh you know that woman loves to fight Lord she can kick, scratch and bite Got me shaking all night Oh baby, well I got me the mean woman blues She got a heart that's cold as ice You cross her once, you won't cross her twice There's no tellin' once her mind is made It's like steppin' on a hand grenade Oh baby, well I got me the mean woman blues Now listen up I went out for a walk in the park Just gettin' some air I came home, and it was just after dark She met me at the top of the stairs Well the next thing I know she began to wail I went flyin' somewhere over the rail She said I know you're out doing me wrong But honey it won't be for long So baby sit down She said you and me are gonna have another round She said in this house female brutality Has become a reality I said wow!
