Mean Old Frisco Blues Lyrics


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 they blow back out on meWell, my mama, she done told me
And my papa told me too
Mama told me and my papa told me tooA woman that gets in your face
Lord, she ain't no friend for youWell, I'm goin' away now, baby
And I won't be back until fall
Goin' away, baby, Lord, I won't be back till fallIf I don't come back by then
Lord, I won't be back at allWell, that mean old dirty Frisco
And that low down Santa Fe
Mean old Frisco and that low down Santa FeGonna take my girl away
Lord, and blow back out on me

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Mance began playing professionally in his early teens and left college in 1947 to join Gene Ammons' band, where he began his recording career. Mance also worked with Lester Young before being drafted into the U.S. Army in 1951. In the 36th Army Band, he served with another notable Jazz musician: Julian "Cannonball" Adderley. After his discharge from the Army in 1953, Mance worked as a sideman and accompanist with musicians such as Dinah Washington, Cannonball Adderley, and Dizzy Gillespie before recording his first album as a leader and forming his own trio in 1961.
