Chorus
I couldn’t be mean to you
I love you too much to hurt you, sweetheart
To ever be cross or try to be boss
I couldn’t be mean to you
Whatever the wrong you do
I know it’s a touch of devil in you
That makes you run wild and act like a child
I couldn’t be mean to you
Though there may be fault to find
There’s so much good in you
So, I never really mind
When you make a little blind mistake
There’s many a time we fight
But then in the end I’m holding you tight
I gaze in your eyes, then I realize
I couldn’t be mean to you
