Turtle Blues Songtext
von Rita Engedalen

I′m a mean, mean woman
I don't mean a woman no good
I′m a mean, mean woman
I don't mean a woman no good
I just treat him like I want to
I never treat him honey like I should

Oh Lord, I once had a daddy
He say he give me everything in sight
Oh Lord, once I had a daddy
He give me everything in sight
Oh honey, I want the sunshine
And take the stars out of the night


Oh, I ain't the kind of woman
Who make your life a bed of ease
No, no, no, no
No, no, no, no
Oh, I am not the kind of woman
Who make your life a bed of ease
But if you wanna go out drinking honey
Won′t you invite me along please

I guess I′m just like a turtle
That's sittin′ underneath his hardest shell
Oh, I guess I'm just like a turtle
That′s sittin' underneath his hardest shell
But you know I′m well, well protected
I know this goddamn life too well

Oh, turtle blues
