It's easy to see a poor boy's blues |
|
When he's working every day |
|
It's harder to be there in his shoes |
|
He was born to be that way |
|
If i tell you tomorrow i'm leaving |
|
Would you understand the reason why? |
|
A poor boy works hard for his living |
|
But a rich man he plays to pass the time |
|
So goodbye, pleased to know you |
|
We had some laughs along the way |
|
But i have to be leaving |
|
And there's nothing you can do to make me stay |
