Tony Joe White
Rich Woman Blues
[Verse 1]
Got a telephone call this morning
My baby wrecked her Mercedes-Benz
She called me up this morning
Totaled out her Mercedes-Benz
I said, "Long as you alright baby
That's all that matters
Just let them tow the thing on in"
[Verse 2]
This woman
Got a three bedroom condominium
Little ol' place down in Florida
A Three bedroom condominium
A little ol' ranch down in Texas
She says them oil wells are so much fun
[Verse 3]
Sometimes she gives me money
'Cause she knows I hardly make enough to eat
I don't mind telling y'all
She gives me a little money
She knows I hardly make enough to eat
She knows a man that plays the blues
Is just living one step from the street
