i'll teach you a lesson about fucking a man of mine

she pulled out a pistol and shot her right between the eyes
pulled out a pistol and shot her right between the eyes
she said open your legs bitch, i'm gonna shoot you 'tween the thighs

a policeman grabbed her and dragged her off to jail

they said your work's hard labor, get started under that tree

coffee and bread is all that you will get
coffee and bread is all that you will get
and what it rains, you surely will get wet

don't you wish you'da let than woman have your man

she said comes a time when a woman don't need no man
comes a time when a woman don't need no man
when you can get it all with your own right hand

but if i can't have a man, well then a woman's my next best bet
if i can't have a man, a woman's my next best bet
she said to a good-looking mama, come here, i'll get you yet

i want you to screw me, and screw me like a dog
i want you to screw me, and screw me like a dog
and when it gets good, i'm gonna holler like a hog

for years, i could take a prick just like a mule
for years, i could take a prick just like a mule
til i found out my man was nothing but a fool

i hustled day and night, all for that man of mine
i hustled day a night, and all for that man of mine
and now i'm behind bars for all of time

i am sorry i am sorry i am sorry to my heart
i am sorry i am sorry i am sorry to my heart
i am sorry that argument ever did start

when i'm dead and way down in my grave
when i'm dead and way down in my grave
then no more of that damn peter will i crave

but i won't be buried just like all my family was
i won't be buried just like all my family was
i won't be buried just like all my family was

they'll put me in a box in the prison yard
put me in a box here in the prison yard
without a tombstone or even with a card
