Tell me, mama
What in the world is wrong with you
Please tell me, mama
What in the world is wrong with you
Well it don't seem like I can please you
No matter what in the world I do
I work hard everyday
Come straight home with all my pay
I work hard everyday
Come straight home with all my pay
Well you find some John
And give all my bread away
I'm gonna buy me a pistol
Nice and long as I am tall
Yes I'm gonna buy me a pistol, woman
Just as long as I am tall
I'm gonna shoot you in your face
While I stand back and watch you fall
Ready to go to penitentiary, woman
I better cut you loose
Ready to go to penitentiary, woman
Ooh I better cut you loose
Well I wanna kill you
But my best friend said
Ain't no use
