Lightnin Hopkins Contrary Mary Lyrics

Contrary Mary Lyrics

Contrary, she contrary, she won't do nothing she say

She contrary, she
contrary, she won't do nothing in the world she say

She done been married
twice and her first husband, man he just let her have her way

But you know
I won't do that!



You better change your way woman, little girl,
Johnny tells you again

- good advice! -

You better change your way,
little girl, Johnny tells you again

Then you'll have better times, little
girl and you'll have much o'friend



One more, one more time'll
do

One more, one more time'll do

Yes I'm gonna get me somebody else
darling, then I'll be through with you
