You’re a Better Man than I Lyrics
[Verse 1]
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?
[Chorus]
Then Mister, you're a better man than I
Yeah Mister, you're a better man than I
Oh Mister, you're a better man than I
Yeah Mister, you're a better man than I
[Verse 2]
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?
[Chorus]
Well then Mister, you're a better man than I
Yeah Mister, you're a better man than I
Oh Mister, you're a better man than I
Yeah Mister, you're a better man than I
[Verse 3]
Could you condemn a man if your faith he doesn't hold?
Say the colour of his skin is the colour of his soul?
Or could you say if men for king and country all must die?
[Chorus]
Well then Mister, you're a better man than I
Yeah Mister, you're a better man than I
Oh Mister, you're a better man than I
Yeah Mister, you're a better man than I
