[Verse]
EI give my all and you take it back
It Ajust don't make no Esense
Wonder why I'm on the edge
It's B7you that makes me tense
It aEll comes down to decency
A man's goAtta have some pEride
When I try to lend a hand you taB7ke me for a rEide
EYour thoughts are deep and your heart small
You confAuse your own sEelf
Tear apart all the good in life and B7hide it on the shelf
ESmile is just a burden and you forgoAtten what it Emeans
Shelter that took long to build and bB7reak it at the sEcenes
[Chorus]
A'Cause you're mean, mean, mean, just plain Eevil
Well, you're Amean, mean, mean and my cB7ards are on the table
Well, I'm mEoving on, I'm stepping out, I'm Afinally on my Eway
Diesel fueled, my bags are packed, tB7his time I'm going to sEtay
AWell, it's not my fault is just who you are but you're dEriving me insane
AThe life he lives is one way road withEout a passing lane
AExpectancy is a luxury, is sEomething that you earn
B7But that my man, I know you never learned, learned, learned
EWell, I'm just out of Louisiana and I'm feeling like myself
EA pack of smokes, some Jerry Reed and whisky for my health
EPulled up to my motel room and much to my surprise
EThere you are standing there with eAvil in your eEyes
EYou're angry and you're bitter and you're lAooking for a fEight
ESun is burning through you eyes, you've B7never seen the light
I feel sEorry for you darling, there's so mAuch we could have dEone
Ain't got time to simply chat with you, it's tB7ime to have some Efun
[Chorus]
A'Cause you're mean, mean, mean, just plain Eevil
Well, you're Amean, mean, mean and my cB7ards are on the table
Well, I'm mEoving on, I'm stepping out, I'm Afinally on my Eway

When I try to lend a hand you take me for a ride

Your thoughts are deep and your heart small
