Mean 'ol World Poem by Dorsey Baker

Its better to be strong
and hold your head up
but sometimes you just have to
break down and cry
break down and cry
because its a mean 'ol world
its a mean 'ol world out there!
When your friends
let you down
when your lover
betrays you
clouds of darkness
seem to be all around you
and you just cannot
make them go away
when the sun won'tshine
and the rain
keeps falling from the sky
sometimes you just have to
break down and cry
break down and cry
because its such a
mean 'ol world
its a mean 'ol world
out there!
