Stormy sky before me,
Heavy winds are blowin',
I'm a mean old man, heaven help me for the way
I am.
In and out of trouble,
Up and down with women,
Lord I get so damn confused sometimes,
Starts my head to spin yeah.
Father get your shotgun, yeah,
Mother warn your children,
Tell 'em I'm a mean old man, heaven help me for
the way I am.
Make no appointments for me,
Make no excuses for me,
You might not like me much
But you know you can't ignore me.
Join me when I'm singin', oooh,
Help me when I'm screamin',
Find me when my mind is almost gone
From drinkin' and a'dreamin'.
Drag me from the bar room,
Take me up to your room.
Tell ya, I'm a mean old man, heaven help me for
the way I am.
