[Verse 1]
I got a woman, mean as she can be
I got a woman, mean as she can be
Sometimes I think she's almost mean as me

[Verse 2]
A black cat up and died of fright
'Cause she crossed his path last night
I got a woman, mean as she can be
Sometimes I think she's almost mean as me

[Verse 3]
Kissed so hard, she bruise my lips
Hurts so good, my heart just flips
I got a woman, mean as she can be
Sometimes I think she's almost mean as me

[Guitar solo]

[Verse 4]
Strangest gal I ever had
Never happy unless she's mad
I got a woman, mean as she can be
Sometimes I think she's almost mean as me

Yeah, huh
Yeah

[Verse 5]
She makes love without a smile
Ooh, hot dog, it drives me wild
I got a woman, mean as she can be
Sometimes I think she's almost mean as me
Sometimes I think she's almost mean as me
Sometimes I think she's almost mean as me

Elvis Aaron Presley (January 8, 1935 – August 16, 1977) was an American performer that spanned all media—music, film, and historic live concerts—with a vehement passion that earned him the moniker, “The King of Rock and Roll.”

Elvis Presley was born in Tupelo, Mississippi to Gladys and Vernon Presley. At the age of 13, he moved with his family to Memphis, Tennessee. Elvis began to explore the blues scene prevalent in Memphis and the culture it encompassed.

In August 1953, he walked into Sun Records to record a song for his mother’s birthday. Manager of Sun Records Sam Phillips took note of his unique voice and persona, and invited Elvis back to the studio in July 1954, where he ultimately recorded his first true single, “That’s All Right,” with “Blue Moon of Kentucky” as the B-side.
