Johnny Cash - Nasty Dan lyrics

Nasty Dan was the meanest man I ever knew
He's stomp and scream and be real
Mean the whole day through
He'd frown a bunch he ate nails
For lunch and he'd never laugh
He'd growl and yell and I hard tell
That he never took a bath

Nasty Dan was a nasty man
Hard to understand that Nasty Dan

Now Nasty Dan was a nasty
Man the whole day long
He'd go where he could he'd try real
Good to make things go wrong
He'd jump for joy when a little
Boy would trip and fall
And the only words that he ever said were
"I don't like you at all!"


Now a real interesting thing that I want
You to know about is this here
Because it's the most important
Thing it concerns
A girl and things like that
Now Nasty Pearl was a nasty
Girl that met Dan somehow
She said you like me rotten as
Can be let's get married now
So they went and they did and had a nasty kid
And I must confess that Dan pretty
Much leaves everyone alone now
And he doesn't bother anybody
Anymore cause he
Just lives in his nasty old house
With his nasty old wife and his
Nasty od kid in nasty happiness
