Black Minnie - Big Joe Williams

Black Minnie, Black Minnie

You know you ain’t doin' me right

But the day you quit me, Black Minnie

I swear, that’s the day you die

Black Minnie, you know I love you

And I love you for myself

And I’d rather be wit' you, Black Minnie

Than to be wit' anyone else

I give ya my money, Black Minnie

And ev’rything that you tol' me you need

And one time done come and caught me

Baby, wearin' my BVD’s

Now, Black Minnie, Black Minnie

I’m 'on beg you one mo' time

And if you don’t suit me

I’m 'on try to play the line

Black Minnie, Black Minnie

What in the world are you tryin' a do?

I b’lieve try and love me, Black Minnie

And my partner, too

Yeah, hey

Black Minnie, Black Minnie

What you tryin' a do?

Now, Black Minnie, Black Minnie

You know you don’t mean me no good

'Cause you goin' out wit' the man

That live right above my neighborhood

Black Minnie, Black Minnie

And you know good well
