Mean Papa, Turn in Your Key |
| In Mississippi in the Delta Bottoms low |
| There’s a man I know, and he trifles so |
| He flashes clothes but where he get them no one knows |
| He seems so slow |
| But the other day, there came our way |
| A yellow-skin gal named May |
| There was murder in her eye, I mean murder in her eye |
| When we heard her say |
| Mean papa, turn in your key |
| You don’t live here no more |
| Mean papa, just let me be |
| Stay away from my door |
| Sheikin' sheiks may burn up Rome |
| But you just sheiked away a home |
| So mean papa, turn in your key |
| You don’t live here no more |
| Mean papa, turn in your key |
| You don’t live here no more |
| Mean papa, just let me be |
| Stay away from my door |
| If you don’t believe I bake jelly roll good |
| Just ask anybody in my neighborhood |
| Mean papa, turn in your key |
| You don’t live here no more |
