  THE BEATLES - MEAN MR. MUSTARD (Lennon/McCartney) From ABBEY ROAD
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Submitted by hancock


Mean Mister Mustard sleeps in the park
Shaves in the dark trying to save paper
Sleeps in a hole in the road
Saving up to buy some clothes
Keeps a ten-bob note up his nose
Such a mean old man
Such a mean old man
🎸
Accuracy Rating: - Votes: -
His sister Pam works in a shop
She never stops, she's a go-getter
Takes him out to look at the queen
Only place that he's ever been
Always shouts out something obscene
Such a dirty old man
Dirty old man
