Poor Boy LyricsArtist: Steve ForbertAlbum: Young, Guitar Days VERSE He's always alone, wrapped up in his plight With his hands in his pockets he's walkin' in the night With his dark eyes lookin', he's a poor boy His dark eyes lookin', he's a poor boy VERSE He can't seem to keep any buttons on his clothes And the shoes on his feet are pinching on his toes And his hair wants a cuttin', he's a poor boy His hair wants a cuttin', he's a poor boy CHORUS Hey (now, now) poor boy What's it all about? Hey, poor boy Can you hear me when I shout? VERSE Well, he's workin' ev'ry day, slavin' for his pay And all the pretty women they love to swish and sway And they always overlook him, he's a poor boy They always overlook him, he's a poor boy VERSE Well, May turns into June, walking through the park And way off in his world he's a-dreamin' in the dark With his mind on fire, he's a poor boy His mind on fire, he's a poor boy (REPEAT CHORUS) (INSTRUMENTAL BREAK) VERSE Well, the streets are alive, ev'ry body laughs People come and go and they're snappin' photographs And he's over by the river, he's a poor boy He's over by the river, he's a poor boy VERSE Well, spring has come and gone now And how much time you got? Time's a-flyin' by, yes, an' summer's gettin' hot an' he's Lis'nin' to the thunder, he's a poor boy He's lis'nin' to the thunder, he's a poor boy (REPEAT CHORUS) (INSTRUMENTAL OUT) Steve Forbert Welk Music (ASCAP)/ Rolling Tide Music (ASCAP) Related: |
