You're a mean mistreating momma,
and you don't mean me no good
You're a mean mistreating
Mama, and you don't mean me no good
And I don't blame you, baby,
I'd be the same way if I could
You say you're going to leave me,
well, you say you're going away
Now you say you're going to leave me,
and you say you're going away
maybe you'll come back home some day
And you're mean mistreater,
And you're a mean mistreater,
and you mistreats me all the time. I try to
but you won't pay that no mind.
Can you remember mama in the morning,
up on your door you had the nerve to tell me that
you didn't want me no more can you remember baby
when i knocked upon your door
you had the nerve to tell me that you
Ain't it lonesome sleepin'
When the one that you love
Ain't it lonesome sleepin' by yourself
When the one that you love,
