Mean Old Man

Kris Kristofferson

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
