Clementine Blues Lyrics by Lonnie Johnson

Portraits in Blues, Volume 6: Lonnie Johnson

0

Mean ol' baby, mean ol' baby girl
She's a mean little baby, she's a mean little baby girl
When you fall in love with her, she really upsets your world
She's got a man in every town, heartaches all around
Yes, she's got a man in every town, all got heartaches all around
When you say baby do I love you, she gets her face all full of frowns
She don't love no one, she just wants someone to dog around
Yes, she don't love no one, just wants someone to dog around
You give her your heart and all your money, she calls you an everyday clown
She's the type you can't please, I don't care what you do
She's the type you can't please, I don't care what you do
Give her your heart and soul, she'll give all your love to two
Yes, you can't trust her, no farther than you can throw her door
Yes, you can't trust her, no farther than you can throw your door
Just as soon as you go to work in the mornin', somebody comes into your back door
Yes, she's a mean little baby, they call her Clementine
She's a mean little baby, they calls her Clementine
Her main aim in life, is makin' every good man whine
She's got such evil little ways, she'll slip right under you skin
She's got such cute little ways, she gets right under your skin
And when you need her, she's slipped out and gone again
Well, if you run across this gal, please throw her out your mind
Well, if you run across this gal, podnah throw it out your mind
'cause she'll win your love and your heart, she can treat you so unkind
When you start cryin', she'll be laughin' in your face
When you begin cryin', she starts laughin' in your face
She says, "I didn't want you anyway, got somebody else in your place."
You can't quit her, you don't want to kill her now
Yes, you don't want to quit her, yet you can't let that gal alone
You'll keep on tryin' to fight, till all your love is gone
She's a evil little woman, they call her Clementine
Yes, she's a evil little woman, they call her Clementine
She'll break you heart baby, there's no sense in tryin'
