Malvina Reynolds - Sings the truth (1966)
I don't mind failing in this world,
I don't mind failing in this world,
Don't mind wearing the ragged britches
'Cause those who succeed are the sons of bitches,
I don't mind failing in this world.
I don't mind failing in this world,
I don't mind failing in this world,
I'll stay down here with the raggedy crew,
'Cause getting up there means stepping on you, so
I don't mind failing in this world.
I don't mind failing in this world,
I don't mind failing in this world,
Somebody else's measuring scale of
Win or lose doesn't tell the tale, so
I don't mind failing in this world.
I don't mind failing in this world,
I don't mind failing in this world,
Somebody else's definition
Isn't going to measure my soul's condition,
I don't mind failing in this world.
I don't mind failing in this world,
I don't mind failing in this world,
Never mind the custom suits,
The gentle hearts wear the dusty boots, so
I don't mind failing in this world.
I don't mind failing in this world,
I don't mind failing in this world,
Some people ride in a car so fine
While others walk on a picket line, so
I don't mind failing in this world.
I don't mind failing in this world,
I don't mind failing in this world,
Don't mind wearing the ragged britches
'Cause those who succeed are the sons of bitches,
I don't mind failing in this world.
