Songtexte Big Boss Man - Mance Lipscomb

Might have to play this twice to get it right
Big old bossman waitin' on me to come back
He want me to plow when I get back

I got a big bossman, just won't treat me right
Wakes me hard all day long, I can't sleep at night
He's standin' on the turnrow with his pistol in his hand
Gettin' whooped, the woman gone kill that man

He's a big bossman, just won't treat me right
Wake me hard all day, I can't sleep at night
I told my wife last night, "Let's pack up our things and go
I ain't gonna work for that mean bossman no more"

'Cause he a big bossman, know he hear me call
Well you ain't so big, you just tall, that's all
Standin' on this corner with his hat on his head
Get mad when you can't understand what he said

'Cause he's a mean bossman, just won't treat me right
Wake me hard all day, I can't sleep at night
Next boss I get gonna be right to me
When I go to him, he gonna let me be

'Cause it's a mean bossman, just won't treat me right
Wake me hard all day long, people, I can't sleep at night

Well you ain't so big, you just tall, that's all
Next bossman I work for, he got to treat me right
I can wake me all day and let me sleep at night

'Cause it's a big bossman, don't you hear me call?
You ain't so big, you just tall, that's all

Yeah
