I Don’t Mind Failing in This World

Malvina Reynolds

I don't mind failing in this world
I don't mind failing in this world
Don't mind wearing the ragged britches
'Cause those who succeed are the sons of bitches
I don't mind failing in this world

I don't mind failing in this world
I don't mind failing in this world
I'll stay down here with the raggedy crew
'Cause getting up there means stepping on you, so
I don't mind failing in this world

I don't mind failing in this world
I don't mind failing in this world
Somebody else's measuring scale of
Win or lose doesn't tell the tail, so
I don't mind failing in this world

I don't mind failing in this world
I don't mind failing in this world
Somebody else's definition
Isn't going to measure my soul's condition
I don't mind failing in this world

I don't mind failing in this world
I don't mind failing in this world
Never mind the custom suits
The gentle hearts wear the dusty boots, so
I don't mind failing in this world

I don't mind failing in this world
I don't mind failing in this world
Some people ride in a car so fine
While others walk on a picket line, so
I don't mind failing in this world

I don't mind failing in this world
I don't mind failing in this world
Don't mind wearing the ragged britches
'Cause those who succeed are the sons of bitches
I don't mind failing in this world
