Brownie McGhee lyrics

I'm A Black Woman's Man blues lyrics

My mother was a black woman, father a black man too
And you know 'bout that, nothin' for a yellow woman to do
Yellow women are mean and they're evil, crooked on every hand
Yes take my advice now boys, and be a black woman's man
Yellow women sit around home, wait for payday to come
She'll never be good no more, till your next week's work is done
Yellow women are mean and they're evil, crooked on every hand
Yeah take my advice now boys, and be a black woman's man
May think a yellow woman loves you, till it comes to a test
She may be your type and kind, I know she's not the best
Yellow women are mean and they're evil, they're crooked on every hand - yes!
Yes just take my advice now boys, and be a black woman's man
I'm crazy 'bout my whiskey, crazy 'bout my gin
But you know a yellow woman is crazy 'bout outside men
Yellow womens are mean and they're evil, crooked on every hand
Why don't you take my advice now boys, and be a black woman's man
Play it for me Slim!
If you go see a yellow woman, got to have your dollar in your hand
Go see a black woman, she gets out her fryin' pan
Yellow women are mean and they're evil, crooked on every hand
Why don't you take my advice now boys, be a black woman's man
