"Mean Man World" lyrics

"Mean Man World"

My little girl is strong as hell
Her story of love and loss is hers to tell
Her words ring of truth just like a bell
The more I hear the more I do well

I am a father in a changing world
Some changes are good for my little girl
Some changes will make her life hell
A long line of fathers that didn't do very well

My little girl, my little girl
If she had her way, she would save the world
And leave a better place than the place that she found
Mean man world can't beat my little girl down

Woman I love, she knows what's right
Everything wrong with the world keeps her up at night
She speaks for the voiceless, she wants to yell
Heaven on Earth is going to hell

My little girl, my little girl
If she had her way, she would save the world
And leave a better place than the place that she found
Mean man world can't beat my little girl down

I wanna fill the world with peaceful sound
Some look at me and see all the men that beat them down
All the men that held them back in this world
Left a broken land for my little girl

My little girl, my little girl
If she had her way, she would save the world
And leave a better place than the place that she found
Mean man world can't beat my little girl down

Mean man world can't beat my little girl down
