I'm a Black Woman's Man

I’M A Black Woman’S Man - Sonny Terry

My mother was a black woman

Father a black man too

And you know about that

Nothing 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 take my advice now boys

And be a black woman's man

I'm crazy about my whiskey

Crazy about my ging

You know a yellow woman is crazy about 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

Everything

Yeah man

Go see a yellow woman

Got to have your dollar in your hand

Go see a black woman

She gets out her frying 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
