Carmen McRae - Jammin' Night'n Day

Mean to Me (feat. McCoy Tyner, Grady Tate-drums & Kenny Barron)

Mean to me
Why must you be mean to me?
Gee, honey
It seems to me you love to see me cryin'

I don't know why
I stay home each night
When you say you'll phone, you don't
And I'm left alone, singin' the blues and cryin'

You treat me coldly
Each day in the year
You always call me whenever somebody is near
Dear, it must be great fun to be mean to me
You shouldn't, for can't you see what you mean to me?

You're mean to me
Why must you be mean to me, honey?
It seems to me you love to see me cry

Again, I stay home each night and every night
When you say you're gonna phone, then you don't
And here am I all alone
Singin' the blues and cryin'

You treat me coldly each day in the year
You always call me whenever somebody is near, near
It must be great fun to be mean to me
You shouldn't, for can't you see just what you mean to me?
