Ray wrote the original slide lick and then the words came along pretty quick. Them 'ol mean woman blues strike again!

You oughta take that smirk,
and get outta my life,
I'm tired of dirty pool,
I'm tired of loaded dice,

You were bad news,
from the day we met,
all my good friends told me,
boy you'll live to regret

ever lovin' you x 4

You threw a drink in my face,
then you tumbled me dry,
first you took all my money,
now you're after my pride,

I should've seen from the beginning,
but I haven't learned yet,
I never listened to my good friends,
when they said I'd regret,

ever lovin' you x 4

You had drinkin' too much whiskey,
smokin' two packs a day
you were a wicked woman,
to treat me that way,

when you walked out the front door,
I heard the screen door slam,
I gotta give it to you baby,
you still got this man,

ever lovin' you x 4
