[00:00.21]Meanest Man - Billy Bragg
[00:15.31]If the folks next door to me wasn't so good
[00:18.73]I'd do all the mean things anybody could
[00:22.51]I'd drink and I'd gamble and I'd louse around
[00:26.51]I'd be the meanest man in this whole town
[00:29.85]
[00:33.71]If I hadn't seen the light in that old ladys eyes
[00:37.66]I'd try to be a man that you would hate and despise
[00:41.88]I'd rave and I'd rant and I'd scream and yell
[00:45.11]And I'd chase all my neighbours from here to hell
[00:48.25]
[00:48.79]If I hadn't heard those kI'ds laugh playing games
[00:52.15]
[00:52.74]I'd have nervous fits and I'd go insane
[00:55.92]
[00:56.47]I'd turpentine cats and tin can dogs
[00:59.81]And I'd smother people to death insI'de of holler logs
[01:03.46]
[01:18.66]If the people around me wasn't so nice
[01:22.11]I'd freeze my heart into a cake of ice
[01:25.98]I'd steal money from soldiers and working folks too
[01:29.89]I'd lend you a dollar and take back two
[01:32.84]
[01:37.15]If my wife dI'dnt kiss me the way she does
[01:40.68]I'd carry four or five daggers and three or four guns
[01:44.61]I'd shoot craps and ramble and hang out late
[01:48.14]And I'd steal baby buggies and cadillac eights
[01:51.33]
[01:51.85]If my friends dI'dnt write me those letters I get
[01:54.88]
[01:55.70]I'd get to be a dictator and be the worse one yet
[01:59.30]I'd be the only smart bird and youd all be fools
[02:03.11]All I'd send you all away to war
[02:04.99]And I'd set home and rule
[02:06.48]
[02:21.85]If it wasn't for them songs I hear all of you sing
[02:25.47]I'd put a crown on my dome and I'd say Im your king
[02:29.16]I'd kI'dnap some and blackmail others
[02:33.05]I'd peddle black market stuff and rob sisters and brothers
[02:36.62]If it wasn't for your talking I hear along the street
[02:40.19]I'd be the oneriest man that you ever dI'd meet
[02:44.01]I'd preach the gospel of hate and I'd drink your blood
[02:47.80]But I can't be this bad because my folks are too good
[02:51.64]But I can't be this bad because my folks are too good
[02:55.28]I'd preach the gospel of hate and I'd drink your blood
[02:58.52]
