about

A bluesy ride about a woman with way too many mens (it's beyond plural!).

lyrics

You told me baby; you want me to be your man
Be your lovey, dovey, and your very best of friends.
Well, that ain’t gonna happen, ‘cause you, gots too many mens

Got a man who comes shovelin’
When you get a little snow
Another who shows up
‘Cause the groceries might be low
Man came last night
‘Case the power was out
But your lights was on all night
The neighbors heard you moan and shout
You got you too many men, like some buddy-buddy friends
I ain’t too good at countin’, but I b’lieve, you got too many mens

An ice cream man who stops
When he's passing by
A milk man in the morning
An ice man at night
A pool man, young and tan
A gardener, brown and fat
A man to oil your hinges,
A man who walk your cat
You got too many men, I said too, too many men
I ain't no good at numbers, but I know you got too many mens

Man comin’ in the window
Say he’s there to fix the door
Man climbing on the roof
Say he's there about the floor
Man, who said he’s there
So, the roof don’t leak again
Well, it ain’t leaked before
And we never get no rain
You got too many mens, going out an’ comin’ in,
I ain't too good at countin’, but I know you got too many mens

Man fix you dinner at noontime
Might stay to have a bite
Another serve you supper
When the moon is shining bright
A man to turn your heater on
A man who dim your lights
Another turn your covers down
And watch you sleep all night
You got too many men, I got to say it again,
Don’t have to count the numbers, I know you got too many mens

You got too many mens, night and daytime too
Too many loose ends, for me to be with you
I ain’t nobody's fool, I know you got too many mens

about

Kevin Greenwood Woodside, California

I began playing harmonica at 16 and was mentored by James Cotton, Junior Wells, and Louis Myers; getting to play with Magic Sam, Luther Tucker, Hound Dog Taylor and many others; and a personal friend of B.B. King from age 17. After a 35 year “blues retirement”, I'm back playing, here with a band of friends. Musically, this is my “debut at 72”. In my free time I'm a writer and substitute educator. ... more
