Mean Talking Blues - Woodie Guthrie[00:00:00]
I'm the meanest man that ever had a brain[00:00:07]
All I scatter is aches and pains[00:00:09]
I'm carbolic acid and a poison face[00:00:13]
And I stand flat-footed in favor of crime and disgrace[00:00:16]
If I ever done a good deed I'm sorry of it[00:00:21]
I'm mean in the East mean in the West[00:00:27]
Mean to the people that I like the best[00:00:29]
I go around a-causin' lot of accidents[00:00:31]
And I push folks down and I cause train wrecks[00:00:33]
I'm a big disaster just goin' somewhere's to happen[00:00:38]
I'm an organized famine studyin'[00:00:43]
Now I can be a little bit meaner[00:00:46]
Still a whole lot too good to suit myself just mean[00:00:49]
I ride around on the subway trains[00:00:57]
Laughing at the tight shoes dealin' you pain[00:00:59]
And I laugh when the car shakes from side to side[00:01:02]
I laugh my loudest when other people cry[00:01:06]
Can't help it I was born good I guess[00:01:09]
Just like you or anybody else[00:01:13]
But dens I just turned off mean[00:01:15]
I hate ev'rybody don't think like me[00:01:20]
And I'd rather see you dead than I'd ever see you free[00:01:22]
Rather see you starved to death[00:01:26]
Than see you at work and I'm readin'[00:01:27]
All the books I can[00:01:29]
To learn how to hurt[00:01:31]
Daily misery spread diseases[00:01:33]
Keep you without no vote[00:01:38]
Keep you without no union[00:01:40]
Well I hurt when I see you getting 'long so well[00:01:43]
I'd ten times rather see you in the fires of hell[00:01:46]
I can't stand fixed see you there all fixed up in that house so nice[00:01:49]
I'd rather keep you in that rotten hole with the bugs and the lice[00:01:55]
And the roaches and the termites[00:02:00]
And the sand fleas and the tater bugs[00:02:02]
And the grub worms and the stingarees[00:02:04]
And the tarantulas and the try spirse spiders childs of the earth[00:02:06]
The ticks and the blow-flies[00:02:10]
These is all of my little angels[00:02:13]
That go 'round helpin' me do the best parts of my meanness[00:02:15]
And mosquiters[00:02:20]
Well I used to be a pretty fair organized feller[00:02:22]
Till I turned a scab and then I turned off yeller[00:02:25]
Fought ev'ry union with teeth and toenail[00:02:29]
And I sprouted a six-inch stinger right in the middle of the tail[00:02:31]
And I growed horns[00:02:34]
And then I cut 'em off I wanted to fool you[00:02:37]
I hated union ever'where[00:02:41]
'Cause God likes unions[00:02:43]
And I hate God[00:02:45]
Well I can get the fat to hatin' the lean[00:02:48]
That'd tickle me more than anything I've seen[00:02:51]
Then get the colors to fightin' one another[00:02:54]
And friend against friend and brother and sister against brother[00:02:56]
That'll be just it[00:02:59]
Everybody's brains a-boilin' in turpentine[00:03:02]
Teeth fallin' out all up and down the streets[00:03:05]
That'll just suit me fine[00:03:08]
'Cause I hate ever'thing that's union[00:03:11]
And I hate ever'thing that's organized[00:03:13]
And I hate ever'thing that's planned[00:03:15]
And I love to hate and I hate to love[00:03:17]
I'm mean I'm just mean[00:03:21]
