Lyrics
You're a Better Man Than I
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Can you judge a man by the way he wears his hair
Can you read his mind by the clothes that he wears
Can you see a fat man by the pattern on his tie
Then mister you're a better man than I
Mister you're a better man than I
Could you tell a wise man by the way he speaks or spells
Is this more important than the stories that he tells
And call a man a fool if for wealth he doesn't strive
Then mister you're a better man than I
Mister you're a better man than I
Can you condemn a man if your faith he doesn't hold
Say the colour of his skin is the colour of his soul
Can you say that men for king and country all must die
Then mister you're a better man than I
Mister you're a better man than I
