Short Haired Woman (Sam Lightnin Hopkins) Lyrics


I don't want no wom'n,
if her hair it ain't no longer 'an mine
I don't want no w'man,
if her hair it ain't no longer 'an mine
Yeah, ya know, she ain't no good for nothin' but trouble, did ya know 'at?
Vets keep ya buyin' rats all the time
Yeah, you know I got on the good side of my woman,
I told her, "Darlin', I's a-comin' to go have some fun"
You know, I went to make her swing out when a rat fell from her head like,
one from a burnin' barn
I just don't want, want no woman,
boy, if her hair it ain't no longer 'an mine
Whoa, ya know she ain't no good for nothin' but trouble
Vets keep ya buyin' rats all the time
Yeah, you know rats and wigs'll get ya killed
Yeah, you know I got on the good side of my woman,
I told her, "Darlin', I's comin' to go have some fun"
You know, I went to make her swing out when a rat fell from her head like,

one from a burnin' barn
I say, I don't want no woman,
boy, if her hair it ain't no longer 'an mine
You know she ain't no good for nothin' but trouble, did ya know 'at?
Vets keep ya buyin' rats all the time

Sam Hopkins was born on March 15, 1912 in Centerville, Texas. In 1920, at the age of eight, Hopkins met and played with the legendary Blind Lemon Jefferson, even becoming Jefferson's guide for a short time. Hopkins' cousin, the great bluesman, Texas Alexander, was another influence. Their musical partnership was broken up by Hopkins' time in Houston's County Prison Farm during the 1930s. When Hopkins made his way to Houston's Third Ward in 1946 he was introduced to Lola Anne Cullum, a talent scout who had pieced together deals with companies such as Aladdin Records out of Los Angeles.
