MEAN JEMIMA (Joey Molland)

She's a brown-eyed lady and I couldn't give her an answer

She took all I'd give her and all she ever wanted was more

And I'd have to admit that I'm not just a born romancer

So, I'm taking it easy, feeling like I did it before

Oh, so mean Jemima

Won't you come back, won't you come back home?

Mean Jemima

Won't you come back, come back home?

I'm sitting here thinking of nothing but matches and candles

She took all I'd give her and all she ever wanted was more

And I'd have to admit she was too much for me to handle

So, I'm taking it easy, laying down on the floor

Oh, mean Jemima

Won't you come back, won't you come back home?

Oh, mean Jemima

Won't you come back, won't you come back home, girl?

[guitar solo]


Yeah, I'm sitting here thinking of how I used to be around her

There was nothing could stop us, baby, we could go away

I'm so glad, I was happy when I first found her

But you treat me so bad, babe, and you run away

Oh, so mean Jemima

Won't you come back, won't you come back home?

Mean Jemima

Won't you come back, won't you come back home?

Home, man


So mean Jemima

Won't you come back, won't you come back home?

Oh, so mean Jemeima

Won't you come back, won't you come back home?

Home, man


Oh, so mean Jemima

Won't you come back, won't you come back home?

Mean Jemima

Won't you come back, won't you come back home?

Come back home.
