Mean Ole World Lyrics & Chords By Blood, Sweat & Tears

What'd you say
Oooh
Come on
Give a hand
Boogie boogie boogie now

Money may buy me diamonds
Money may buy me clothes
Money can't buy me no fun ya'll
Money I ain't got none ya'll
Tryin' to make it (Tryin' to make it)
Tryin' to make it (Tryin' to make it)
In this mean old world
(Cold hard mean cruel world)

Now people don't bring me no pleasure
People just cause me pain
People may say I'm crazy
People I'm just a natural born man

Just to do me in
