Lucille Bogan - Lucille Bogan (Bessie Jackson), Vol. 3 [1934-1935]

Pig Iron Sally

Some folks say black is evil
But I will tell the world they're wrong
Some folks say black is evil
But I will tell the world they're wrong
'Cause I'm a seal-skin brown
And I been evil ever since I been born
(Anybody can look at you and feel that)

I'm a-scared to trust a rabbit
And I won't even trust a squirrel
I'm a-scared to trust a rabbit
And I won't even trust a squirrel
And I won't bat my eyes
'Cause I might lose sight on this whole round world

I've got a head like a freight train
And I walk just like a grizzly bear
I've got a head like a freight train
And I walk like a grizzly bear
And I use my skeet and garret
And I skeet my armpit hair everywhere

They call me Pig Iron Sally
'Cause I live in Slag Iron alley
And I'm evil and mean as I can be

Call me Pig Iron Sally
'Cause I live in Slag Iron alley
And I'm evil and mean as I can be

And I ain't going to let nobody
Put that doggone thing on me

I ain't nothing, but a mistreater
Baby, and it ain't no joke
I ain't nothing but a mistreater
Baby, and it ain't no joke
And if you don't believe I'm dirty
You can watch my bogus stroke
