Tight Haired Mama Blues

 


Here come my tight‑haired woman : I can tell by the way she walks
But I know she be shaking that thing : because I can tell by the way she talks

I don't want no tight‑haired woman : to cook no meat for me
Because she's so tight‑haired and evil : I'm scared she might poison poor me

Now your hair ain't curly : know your teeth ain't neither pearls
If the men were asking for hair : you would have a hard time in this world

Babe you know I did more for you : than the good Lord ever done
You know I bought you some hair : because he sure didn't give you none

Now if you got good hair : you want to keep it looking neat
Just go down to the ten‑cents store : get you a nickel worth of

I will tell you girls one thing : you know it really is true
Baby now you got good hair : but you bought bought this from the Jew
