Kris Kristofferson

Mean Old Man

If I look like a mean old man that's what I am

If I look like a mean old man that's what I am

If I look like a mean old man

Who'll do you any way he can

To break your heart and kiss your hand

That's what I am

And if I look like a good old friend that's what I am

If I look like a good old friend that's what I am

If I look like a good old friend

Who's good at bending with the wind

To be your friend right to the end

That's what I am

And if I look like a voodoo doll that's what I am

If I look like a voodoo doll that's what I am

If I look like a voodoo doll

Who takes his licking standing tall

Who'd rather bite you back than crawl

That's what I am

If I look like your uncle Bob that's what I am

If I look like your uncle Bob that's what I am

If I look like your uncle Bob

Who likes to slap you on the back and rob you

While he still can do the job

That's what I am

And if I look like a voodoo doll that's what I am

If I look like a voodoo doll that's what I am

If I look like a voodoo doll

Who takes his licking standing tall

Who'd rather bite you back than crawl

That's what I am
