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 fat man
by the pattern on his tie

Then mister you're a better man than I
Mister you're a better man than I
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 stories that he tells
And call a man a fool
if for wealth he doesn't strive

Then mister you're a better man than I
Mister you're a better man than I
Mister you're a better man than I
Mister you're a better man than I
 [bad word] 

Can you condemn a man
if your faith he doesn't hold
Say the colour of his skin
is the colour of his soul
Can 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
Mister you're a better man than I
Mister you're a better man than I

Mister you're a better man than I
