[00:13.12] Never sing for my supper
[00:18.91] I never help my neighbour
[00:24.80] Never do what is proper
[00:30.09] For my share of labour.
[00:35.55] I'm a poor boy
[00:38.24] And I'm a rover
[00:41.34] Count your coins and
[00:43.93] Throw them over my shoulder
[00:48.29] I may grow older
[00:52.55] Nobody knows
[00:56.57] How cold it grows
[00:58.61] And nobody sees
[01:00.98] How shaky my knees
[01:03.83] Nobody cares
[01:06.28] How steep my stairs
[01:09.50] And nobody smiles
[01:11.90] If I cross their stiles.
[01:18.19] Oh poor boy
[01:21.65] So sorry for himself
[01:28.59] Oh poor boy
[01:32.90] So worried for his health.
[01:37.24] You may say every day
[01:40.92] Where will he stay tonight.
[01:56.46] Never know what I came for
[02:02.04] Seems that I've forgotten
[02:07.82] Never ask what I came for
[02:13.33] Or how I was begotten.
[02:18.66] I'm a poor boy
[02:21.49] And I'm a ranger
[02:24.44] Things I say
[02:26.97] May seem stranger than Sunday
[02:31.26] Changing to Monday.
[02:35.60] Nobody knows
[02:38.60] How cold it flows
[02:41.46] And nobody feels
[02:44.68] The worn down heels
[02:47.15] Nobody's eyes
[02:50.38] Make the skies
[02:53.42] Nobody spreads
[02:56.03] Their aching heads.
[03:01.44] Oh poor boy
[03:05.05] So worried for his life
[03:11.93] Oh poor boy
[03:16.21] So keen to take a wife.
[03:21.27] He's a mess but he'll say yes
[03:23.95] If you just dress in white.
[04:07.76] Nobody knows
[04:10.04] How cold it blows
[04:13.16] And nobody sees
[04:15.71] How shaky my knees
[04:18.93] Nobody cares
[04:21.52] How steep my stairs
[04:24.74] And nobody smiles
[04:27.27] If you cross their stiles.
[04:33.07] Oh poor boy
[04:36.66] So sorry for himself
[04:43.95] Oh poor boy
[04:48.18] So worried for his health.
[04:52.73] You may say every day
[04:56.24] Where will he stay tonight.
[05:12.75] Oh poor boy
[05:16.81] So worried for his life
[05:24.22] Oh poor boy
[05:28.84] So keen to take a wife.
[05:36.06] Oh poor boy
[05:40.64] So sorry for himself
[05:47.33] Oh poor boy
[05:51.76] So worried for his health
[05:58.81] Oh poor boy.
