Give Me Back That Wig

Give me back that wig I bought you, baby; darling, let

your doggone head go bald

Give me back that wig I bought you, baby; darling, let

your doggone head go bald

Yes, I come to find out this morning (God bless your

heart), baby, you don't need no hair at all

Yeah, you know I bought you a wig

I say, "We're going out and have some fun"

I looked around for you baby and what did I face?

A great big gun

Give me back that wig I bought you, woman, please ma'am,

let your doggone head go bald

Yes, you know I done come to find out you don't need no

hair at all

Yeah, you know my mama she done told me, told me just

what a woman'd do

Yeah, you know my mama she done told me, told me just

what a woman'd do

Yes, "If she can't get a wig from the store, she'll come

'round and try to buy one of them things from you"
