Well a poor boy's got one thing on a rich man, honey
|
He's got time to feel,
|
he don't have to deal with all his money
|
So if you want me, ya gotta take me just the way that I am.
|
I'm a poor boy, my heart's on fire, I'm a travelin' man.
|
|
If you wanna be lonely,
|
Sleepin in bed with all your diamond rings
|
Go ahead and find someone
|
With a heart as cold as stone
|
But don't come a knockin' when you wake up all alone
|
|
Because a poor boy's got one thing on a rich man, honey
|
He don't have to pretend,
|
he's got the world to win with all his money
|
So if you want me, ya gotta take me just the way that I am.
|
I'm a poor boy, my heart's on fire, I'm a travelin' man...
|
|
If you wanna be lonely,
|
Sleepin in bed with all your diamond rings
|
Go ahead and find someone
|
With a heart as cold as stone
|
But don't come a knockin' when you wake up all alone
|
|
Because a poor boy's got one thing on a rich man, honey
|
He knows the gift of love
|
is a bundle above a whole mountain of money
|
So if you want me, ya gotta take me just the way that I am.
|
I'm a poor boy, my heart's on fire, I'm not a candy stand...
