Mean Old World - Lou Rawls

Sometimes I get disgusted, yeah

My mind goes up and down

Sometimes I get disgusted

My mind goes round and round

Well, now my woman has quit me

Now I’m feelin' low down

This is a mean old world to live in

And I’m just travelin' through

This is a mean old world to live in

I’m just travelin' through

Sometimes I feel so lonely

I don’t know what to do

Well, it’s a mean old world

Well, if my baby comes back home

Everything is gonna be alright

If my baby comes back home

Everything is gonna be alright

Then I won’t have to worry

No more late at night

I said, it’s a mean old world

And I’m just travelin' through

Well, it’s a mean old world

And I’m just travelin' through

If my baby comes on home

Then I won’t be blue

Oh, it’s a mean old world

I’m just traveling through

Mean, mean, mean, mean, mean
