Ida Cox Southern Woman's Blues
Takes a southern woman : to sing this southern song
Lord I'm worried now : but I won't be worried long
When I was downtown : I wouldn't take no one's advice
But I ain't going to let : that same bee sting me twice
Because I'm going back : where the weather suits my
clothes
Down where there ain't no snow : and the chilly winds
never blow
I don't want no northerner : no northern black or brown
Southern men will stick by you : when the northern men
can't be found
You ever been south : you know just what I mean
Southern men are all the same : from Kentucky to New
Orleans
I'm going back south : where I can get my hambone boiled
These northern men : are about to let my poor hambone
spoil
