Janis Joplin

I'm a mean, mean woman
I don't mean no one mean, no good
I'm a mean, mean woman
I don't mean no one mean, no good
I just treats em like I wants to
I never treats em, honey like I should

Oh lord, I once had a daddy
He said he'd give me everything in sight
Once had a daddy 
Said he'd give me everything in sight
So I said, hon I want the sunshine
And take the stars out of the night
(Come on and give em to me, cause I want em right now)

I ain't the kind of woman
Who'd make your life a bed of ease
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
I'm not the kind of woman...no
To make your life a bed of ease
Yeah...but if you just wanna go out drinkin honey
Won't you invite me along please
(Oh I'd be so good to ya babe...yeah.)

I guess I'm just like a turtle
That's hidin underneath its horny shell
Whoah...I'm like a turtle
Hidin underneath its horny shell
But ya know I'm very well protected

Ya can call me evil...yeah
I've been called much of some things around
Call me mean
Or call me evil
I've been called much of some things around
Yeah...but I'm gonna take good care of Janis
Yeah!
Honey no one gonna talk me down.
