Lyrics

Had me a lover who didn't treat me right We fight and cry and wore me down While I was making read that line Cheat was making time I packed my tote for higher ground What once was sweet grew so sour on the vine Now it tastes like a winter muscadine Well I walked on downtown for to find the man Who helped turn my tears into a smile We ducked down the alley just like we usually planned But his wife was a waiting crocodile What once was sweet grew so sour on the vine Now it tastes like a winter muscadine Let me be, oh mama, let me be Let me be, oh mama, let me be She's sharpening up her tongue She's loading up her father bar She's a pistol packing man of tail And I'm running for my life So I got me a sweet loving woman down the line She don't like to holler or to scream But she got a complicated modern kind of life Now her man is coming after me What once was sweet grew so sour on the vine Now it tastes like a winter muscadine Let me be, oh daddy, let me be Let me be, oh daddy, let me be He's chasing me around the block on his shiny motorbike He's a rebel in the rebel and I'm rolling out of sight Now I've seen sorrow grow a bitter fruit It tastes like a winter muscadine Well I stomp that grape and then I drink a toast to you I soak it up like the sunshine Yeah, I suck it up like southern kind Yeah and it still tastes like a muscadine
