Now, I've got a pepper mama 

But she don't mean me no good 

Now, I've got a pepper mama 

She don't mean me no good 

Now, you know she don't treat me 

Like a woman should 

Now, she mistreat me in the mo'nin 

And she mistreat me late at night 

She mistreat me in the mo'nin 

She mistreat me late at night 

Now ya know she's a mean woman 

She won't treat no one right 

Pepper mama, pepper mama 

Why do you treat me so mean? 

Pepper mama, pepper mama 

Why do you treat me so mean? 

You treat me just like 

A man you never seen 

'I'll take it lightly for me, now' 

'Play it for Mr. McCoy, yas sir' 

(guitar) 

I'm gonna leave my pepper mama 

She won't treat me good no mo' 

I'm gonna leave my pepper mama 

She won't treat me good no mo' 

Now she have mistreat me 

And drove me from her do'.
