Lyrics for Mean Old Frisco

Well that mean old dirty Frisco And that low down Santa Fe Mean old Frisco And that low down Santa Fe You know they take my girl away Lord, and blow back out on me Well my mama, she done told me And my papa told me too Mama told me And my papa told me too A woman that gets in your face Lord she ain't no friend for you Well I'm goin' away now baby And I won't be back until fall Goin' away, baby Lord, I won't be back till fall If I don't come back by then Lord, I won't be back at all Well that mean old dirty Frisco And that low down Santa Fe Mean old Frisco And that low down Santa Fe Gonna take my gal away Lord, and blow back out on me
