Deep Purple – Mean Streak lyrics

(Blackmore/Glover/Gillan)

She came home last night
Rockin' rolling drunk
She talk no sense but she sound good
So she thunk
So I reached over and said Hello
There some planet you'd care to go
And she said Venus on the rocks

I said she got a mean streak
Black Mamba no compete
She got a mean streak
Temptation bitter sweet

She drive me crazy gets inside my brain
She spun my money down the drain, oh...
So I roll over for my reward
How much can I afford
And she says,
Just a little more

You know, she got a mean streak
Black Mamba no compete
She got a mean streak
Temptation bitter sweet

She got a mean streak
Black Mamba no compete
She got a mean streak
Temptation bitter sweet

I can't take this no more
I tried so hard but I can't get through the door
Because one smile from those eyes
And I stand there paralysed
And she says
You better beg for more
Get down sucka you know what I like
Whooh! Hang on

Black mamba don't compete
She got a mean streak
Temptation bitter sweet

She got a mean streak
Black mamba don't compete
She got a mean streak
Temptation bitter sweet

Mean... Streak

Mean streak...
She got a mean.. Streak

She got a mean.. Streak

Mean... Streak
