THE POOR MAN SONG lyrics
I never was a rich man
that's no lie
I never made much
but I got by
but the world keeps on turning
and I am too
and now I don't know
what to do
because it costs too much to be poor
that's for sure
I don't want to live
out on the street
I don't wanna pay
40 bucks for meat
I don't want to be
the thing I have to be
I don't want to see
the things I have to see
because it costs too much to be poor
that's for sure
I know how to put in
a hard day's work
but I ain't no fool
I ain't no jerk
but now I don't have
a dime to spare
don't even have a nickel
to do that there
I can't even go out
and pay for a girl
because there's nothing else left
in this whole wide world
the bloodsuckers have taken
over the earth
from the moment you die
until your birth and rebirth
they steal and they murder
they spoil and they rape
and if you are good
then you have no escape
because it costs too much to be poor
that's for sure
Jesus sat down
right next to be
and gave me some soup
and a cup of tea
and in His hands
he held a bird
and didn't have to say
a single word
that's why it costs so much to be pure
that's for sure
it costs so much to be pure
that's for sure
