Can you judge a man
By the way he wears his hair?
Can you read his mind
By the clothes he wears?
Can you see a bad man
By the pattern on his tie?
Then mister you're a better man than I
Could you tell a wise man
By the way he speaks or spells?
And is this more important
Than the story he tells?
And call a man a fool
If for wealth he doesn't strive?
Then mister you're a better man than I
Can you damn a man
If your faith he doesn't hold?
Say the color of his skin
Is the color of his soul?
Could you say that man
For king and country all must die?
Then mister you're a better man than I
