Mean Old World Lyrics - Stan Webb's Chicken Shack

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
