Текст, перевод и аккорды “Meanest Man”
- If the folks next door to me wasnt so good Id do all the mean things anybody could Id drink and Id gamble and Id louse around Id be the meanest man in this whole town If I hadnt seen the light in that old ladys eyes Id try to be a man that you would hate and despise Id rave and Id rant and Id scream and yell And Id chase all my neighbours from here to hell If I hadnt heard those kids laugh playing games Id have nervous fits and Id go insane Id turpentine cats and tin can dogs And Id smother people to death inside of holler logs If the people around me wasnt so nice Id freeze my heart into a cake of ice Id steal money from soldiers and working folks too Id lend you a dollar and take back two If my wife didnt kiss me the way she does Id carry four or five daggers and three or four guns Id shoot craps and ramble and hang out late And Id steal baby buggies and cadillac eights If my friends didnt write me those letters I get Id get to be a dictator and be the worse one yet Id be the only smart bird and youd all be fools All Id send you all away to war and Id set home and rule If it wasnt for them songs I hear all of you sing Id put a crown on my dome and Id say Im your king Id kidnap some and blackmail others Id peddle black market stuff and rob sisters and brothers If it wasnt for your talking I hear along the street Id be the oneriest man that you ever did meet Id preach the gospel of hate and Id drink your blood But I cant be this bad because my folks are too good Words: woody guthrie (1945) - music: billy bragg (1997)
