Intro: 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 Verse 1: 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 Repeat verse 1 and Chorus
