Reverend Gary Davis - Mean Old World lyrics

This is a mean world you live in 'til you die This is a mean world you live in 'til you die Without a father, without a mother Without a sister and your brother A mean world you live in 'til you die Just one moment in glory To satisfy my weary mind Eating of the honey Be drinking of the wine Going to sit down with With Peter, James and John It's a mean world you live in 'til you die This is a mean world you live in 'til you die This is a mean world you live in 'til you die Without your father and your mother And your sister and your brother It's a mean world you live in 'til you die This is a mean world you live in 'til you die This is a mean world you live in 'til you die Without a father and your mother And your sister and your brother It's a mean world you live in
