Ramblin’ Thomas
I never loved but three womens in my life
I never loved but three womens in my life
My mother and my sister, and my partner's wife
My mama told me when I was about twelve years old
My mama told me when I was about twelve years old
"Son, you’re nothin' but a back-biter, may God rest your soul"
[Spoken]
They called me back-biter. I am a back-biter. I'll bite any man in the back
Gonna tell all of you womens something, baby, you might not like
And I’m gonna tell all of you women something, baby, you might not like
I want to know if I can bite your man in the back
You might risk me, brother, but I will never risk you
Well, you might risk me, brother, but I will never risk you
If you allow me a chance, I will gnaw your backbone half in two
Back Gnawing Blues was written by Ramblin’ Thomas.
