Faron Young - I'm A Poor Boy lyrics

rate me

I said hey I'm a poor poor boy

Well I got no car and my horse went lame I got no friends that I can name

But step up close and hear me hon I'm just a poor boy looking for fun

Well I've been around this whole wide world there's nothing I ain't done

I phoned with lots of pretty gals I've had a lotta fun

But they always mentioned diomond rings and wanna tie the knot

But you can't raise a wife on nothing and nothing is all I've got

I said hey I'm a poor poor boy...

[ fiddle - steel ]

Well my reputation ain't the best but my heart is never blue

I got no income tax to pay no worries boy like you

I've got no one to tie me down every day's my lucky day

If you wanna be happy just like me hear what I have to say

I said hey I'm a poor poor boy...
