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 bad 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 story that he tells
And call a man a fool
If for wealth he does not strive
Then mister you’re a better man than I
Mister you’re a better man than I.
Do you think in all things
The majority is right
That men with individuality
You’d never fight
Can you hate a man
That shouts a freedom cry
Then mister you’re a better man than I
Mister you’re a better man than I.
Could you damn a man
If your faith he does not hold
Say the color of his skin
Is the color of his soul
Could 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.VIEW COMPLETE FEWER LYRICS
