"Mean Mistreater" lyrics - MEMPHIS MINNIE

I have the blues at all times, they worry me night and day
I have the blues at all times, they worry me night and day
They fall so hard at times, till they send my mind away

Once I had a mistreater, kept accusing me of someone else
Once I had a mistreater, kept accusing me of someone else
When it come to a showdown, he was stepping out himself

I give him all of my money, my love, my everything
I give him all of my money, my love, my everything
He stays sweet all the winter, jumps salty in the spring

(spoken: Low down dog
That's a nasty man)

I give up all of my pleasure, forsaken all of my friends
I give up all of my pleasure, forsaken all of my friends
But now the way he been doing, I declare it's a crying sin
