Lyrics Mean Old World - Chicken Shack, Stan Webb

Mean Old World

This is a mean old world, try livin' by yourself
This is a mean old world, try livin' by yourself
Can’t get the one your lovin' have to use somebody else
I got the blues, gonna pack my bags and go
Yes, I got the blues, gonna pack my bags and go
Yes, I guess you really don’t love me
I’m just an unlucky so and so.
Sometimes I wonder why — can your love be so cool
Yeah, sometimes I wonder why — can your love be so cool
Yes, I guess you don’t really don’t love me
I’m just an unlucky so and so
As performed by Peter Green on BBC Session:
This is a mean old world,
try and live in by yourself,
This is a mean old world,
try and live in by yourself,
Can?
t get the one you?
re lovin?
Yes, you got to use somebody else
You know, I hate to remember
what a fool I used to be
yes, I hate to remember
what a fool I used to be
I give you all my lovin'
Look how you mistreat me
Break
You know, I smile to keep from worrying
And I laugh to keep from crying
Yes, I smile to keep from worrying, people
You know, I laugh to keep from crying
And that?
s so?
s I don?
t let the public know
What?
s on my worried mind
Someday baby,
When the blood runs cold in my veins
I said someday baby,
When the blood runs cold in my veins
You won?
t have to hurt old me no more
'Cause my heart won?
t feel no pain
