Billy works too hard, trying to make ends meet
|
He's gotta pay his credit cards, yeah he's been dealing with the odds that even
|
Vegas can't beat
|
By six he's out of bed, she makes his coffee sweet
|
He grabs his boots & his coat, leaves a note that says I Love You
|
And runs to catch a bus down at the end of Market Street
|
Chorus:
|
It took some time to figure it out
|
He's a rich man living in a poor man's house
|
He might be down, but he ain't out
|
He's a rich man living in a poor man's house
|
Every night at home, feels like it's Christmas Eve
|
Gracie's got his dinner on the stove, Daddy's coming home
|
And they've got seven hungry children that are tugging on his sleeve
|
Chorus:
|
It took some time to figure it out
|
He's a rich man living in a poor man's house
|
He might be down, but he ain't out
|
He's a rich man living in a poor man's house
|
Every night at five when work lets out
|
He's a rich man living in a poor man's house
|
He arrives at 9 as the work bell's ringing
|
Hits the grind but his heart is singing
|
Some men live for money
|
Some men live for work
|
But it's a real man, a richer man who knows what love's worth
|
Chorus:
|
It took some time to figure it out
|
He's a rich man living in a poor man's house
|
He might be down, but he ain't out
|
He's a rich man living in a poor man's house
|
Every night at five when work lets out
|
He's a rich man living in a poor man's house
|
A rich man living in a poor man's house
|
A rich man living in a poor man's house
|
A rich man living in a poor man's house
