Mean Talking Blues - Woody Guthrie[00:00:00]
I'm the meanest man that ever had a brain[00:00:06]
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[00:00:15]
Favor of crime and disgrace[00:00:17]
I ever done a good deed I'm sorry of it[00:00:20]
I'm mean in the east mean in the west[00:00:26]
Mean in 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'[00:00:37]
Somewhere's to happen[00:00:39]
I'm an organized famine studyin' now[00:00:43]
I can be a little bit meaner[00:00:45]
I'm still a whole lot too good suit[00:00:48]
Myself[00:00:51]
Just mean[00:00:53]
I ride around on the subway trains[00:00:57]
Laughin' 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[00:01:09]
I was born good I guess[00:01:11]
Just like you or anybody else[00:01:13]
But then I[00:01:14]
Just turned off mean[00:01:16]
I hate ev'rybody don't think like me[00:01:19]
And I'd rather see you dead than I'd ever see you free[00:01:22]
Rather see you starved to death[00:01:25]
Than see you at work[00:01:27]
And I'm readin' all the books I can[00:01:28]
To learn how to hurt[00:01:30]
Daily misery[00:01:33]
Spread diseases[00:01:35]
Keep you without no vote[00:01:37]
Keep you without no union[00:01:39]
Well I hurt when I see you gettin'[00:01:43]
Along so well[00:01:45]
I'd ten times rather see[00:01:45]
You in the fires of hell[00:01:47]
I can't stand to fixed see you there[00:01:49]
All fixed up in that house so nice[00:01:51]
I'd rather keep you in that rotten[00:01:54]
Hole with the bugs and the lice[00:01:56]
And the roaches[00:01:58]
And the termites[00:02:00]
And the sand fleas and the tater bugs[00:02:02]
And the grub worms and the stingarees[00:02:03]
And then a grown tarantulas and the spiders[00:02:05]
Childs of the earth[00:02:09]
The ticks and the blow flies[00:02:10]
These is all of my little angels[00:02:12]
That go 'round helpin' me do[00:02:15]
The best parts of my meanness[00:02:16]
And mosquiters[00:02:20]
Well I used to be a pretty fair[00:02:22]
Organized feller[00:02:24]
Till I turned a scab and then[00:02:25]
I turned off yeller[00:02:26]
Fought ev'ry union with teeth and toenail[00:02:29]
And I sprouted a six inch stinger[00:02:31]
Right in the middle of the tail[00:02:32]
And I growed horns[00:02:33]
And then I cut 'em off[00:02:36]
I wanted to fool you[00:02:39]
I hated union ever'where[00:02:41]
'Cause god likes unions[00:02:43]
And I hate god[00:02:44]
Well if 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]
And their teeth fallin' out all up and down the streets[00:03:04]
That'll just suit me fine[00:03:07]
'Cause I hate ever'thing that's union[00:03:10]
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[00:03:20]
I'm just mean[00:03:23]
