Lyrics Mean Mistreatin' Mama - Elmore James

You're a mean mistreatin' mama, mistreat me all the time
You're a mean mistreatin' mama, you mistreat me all the time
I tried to tell you how much I love you but you don't pay me no mind

Can you remember, baby, when I knocked upon your door?
Can you remember, baby, when I knocked upon your door?
You had the nerve to tell me that you didn't want me no more

One of these morning, baby, won't be long
I'm gonna pack my suitcase and down the road I'm gone
One of these morning and it won't be very long
I'm gonna pack my suitcase, baby, down the road I'm gone

Ain't it lonesome, sleeping by yourself
When the one you love lovin' someone else
Ain't it lonesome, baby, sleepin' by yourself
When the woman you lovin' she's lovin' someone else
