Lyrics:
You can leave me if you want to, I'm givin' you a break.
But don't come back home cryin' over your mistake.
*
I've got a man in the 'Bama mine.
I can spend his dollar, like I can his dime.
*
My man is down in da mine he got a Cadillac 8.
And I got the job to keep his business strait.
*
I got a man in the mine who'll stand right up for me.
He rolls my biscuits right just every night for me.
*
Yes I got a man in the mine, you wimens better try an' get a man like me,
He may look dusty when he comes out, but I swear he (knows what it's all about)
*
You let your women fool you and give me the airs.
I try to be in reason, now I don't even care.
*
Go ahead bajingo he don't come no more,
The fastest move you make is to dog gone slow.
