James Taylor - Mean Old Man - Live at the Colonial Theatre Lyrics

Lyrics Mean Old Man - Live at the Colonial Theatre - James Taylor



On my own, how could I have known?
Imagine my surprise.
Just a fool from a tree full of fools
Who can't believe his eyes,
Imagine my surprise?
I was a mean old man,
I was an ornery cuss,
I was a dismal Dan,
I made an awful fuss.
Ever since my life began, man,
It was ever thus,
I was a nasty tyke
Who was hard to like.
I had to misbehave,
I did things in reverse,
Refused to wash or shave,
I was horrid to my nurse.
I got back what I gave
Which only made me worse,
I had to have my way
Which was bleak and gray.
Oh dear, living in here,
One hundred years of rain.
Such a drag, this riches to rags
With just myself to blame,
A dirty low-down shame.
Silly me, silly old me,
Somewhere outside my mind.
Clever you...
