Her Mind is Gone (Live, 1978) Lyrics by Professor Longhair

The Last Mardi Gras

1982

[Verse 1]
If you got a woman
And she don't understand
You don't have to beat her or dog her
Give her to another man
[Chorus]
Cos her mind is gone
It ain't no doubt about it, boy, her mind is gone
When a women starts doing wrong
She won't do right no more
[Verse 2]
I remember when I first got married
I tried to settle down
The woman I took for my wife
Took me for a clown
[Chorus]
Cos her mind is gone, hey hey hey
Her mind is gone
When a women starts doing wrong
She won't do right no more
[Verse 3]
Sometimes they says thеy will
And again they says they won't
And when thеy know they should
That’s the time they don't
[Chorus]
Cos their mind is gone, hey
Her mind is gone
When a women starts doing wrong
She won't do right no more
[Verse 4]
I bought her rubies and diamonds
I even bought her a house
And we stayed together two weeks
Then she put me out
[Chorus]
Cos her mind is gone
It ain't no doubt about it boy, her mind is gone
When a women starts doing wrong
She won't do right no…
Oh yeah!
{Piano solo}
Blow!
{Sax solo}
[Verse 5]
Well, you've heard my story
I ain't gonna say no more
If you dig a woman like I had
Down the road you'll go
[Chorus]
Cos her mind is gone
Hey hey hey, her mind is gone
When a women starts doing wrong
She won't do right no more
When a women starts doing wrong
She won't do right no more
When a women starts doing wrong
She won't do right no more
