Meanest Man - Billy Bragg and Wilco[00:00:00]
If the folks next door to me weren't so good[00:00:15]
I'd do all the mean things anybody could[00:00:18]
I'd drink an' I'd gamble an' I'd louse around[00:00:22]
I'd be the meanest man in this whole town[00:00:26]
If I hadn't seen the light in that old lady's eyes[00:00:33]
I'd try to be a man you would hate an' despise[00:00:37]
I'd rave an' I'd rant an' I'd scream an' yell[00:00:40]
An' I'd chase my neighbors from here to Hell[00:00:44]
If I hadn't heard those kids laugh playing games[00:00:48]
I'd have nervous fits I'd go insane[00:00:52]
I'd turpentine cats an' tin can dogs[00:00:56]
I'd smother people to death inside of hollow logs[00:00:59]
If the people around me wasn't so nice[00:01:18]
I'd freeze my heart into a cake of ice[00:01:21]
Steal money from soldiers an' working folks too[00:01:25]
I'd lend you a dollar an' I'll take back two[00:01:29]
If my wife didn't kiss me the way she does[00:01:37]
I'd carry four or five daggers an' three or four guns[00:01:40]
I'd shoot craps an' ramble an' hang out late[00:01:44]
I'd steal baby buggies an' Cadillac Eights[00:01:48]
If my friends didn't write me those letters I get[00:01:51]
I'd be a dictator the worse one yet[00:01:55]
I'd be the only smart bird you'd all be fools[00:01:59]
Send you all away to war an' I'd stay home an' rule[00:02:02]
If it wasn't for little songs I I hear you all sing[00:02:21]
I'd put a crown on my dome an' I'd say I'm your king[00:02:25]
I'd kidnap some an' blackmail others[00:02:29]
I'd peddle black market stuff rob sisters an' brothers[00:02:32]
If it weren't for your talking I hear on the street[00:02:36]
I'd be the orneriest man that you ever did meet[00:02:40]
I'd preach the Gospel of Hate an' I'd drink your blood[00:02:43]
But I can't be this bad because my folks are too good[00:02:47]
No I can't be this bad because my folks are too good[00:02:51]
I'd have to shout it out loud "My folks are too good"[00:02:55]
