BLACK WIDOW SPIDER

a.k.a. MARY LOUISE WATSON

17 Dec 1971 version

Well I got a girlfriend
Mary Lou Watson is her name
Yeah I said I got a girlfriend
Mary Lou Watson is her name Now she'll tell you that she don't have a lover
But I know that she do just the same

And she's a sweet young thing
Her best friends they all call her Lulu
And she's a sweet young thing
Her best friends they call her Lulu
She might tell you that she don't
But I know that she do

Mr Dave Sancious

Yeah she's a sweet young thing
Look like an angel with her heart on fire
Yeah she's a sweet young thing
She looks just like an angel with her heart on fire
You might think she's a butterfly, boy but that woman ain't no doubt
She's a black widow spider

Yeah I got a girlfriend, Mary Louise is her name
Oh buddy I got a girlfriend
Oh sweet Louise, that's her name
She can tell you that she don't love you
But I know that she send you her ???


First song played by Bruce with the Steel Mill. These lyrics refer to the version of BLACK WIDOW SPIDER played on 17 Dec 1971 at the Rutgers University, New Brunswick, NJ.

A strong, bluesy number with some great guitar and piano work.
