Faron Young - I'm A Poor Boy Lyrics
(Mel Tillis - Buck Peddy - Faron Young)I said, hey, I'm a poor, poor boyWell, I got no car and my horse went lameI got no friends that I can nameBut step up close and hear me, honI'm just a poor boy looking for fun.Well, I've been around this whole wide worldThere's nothing I ain't doneI phoned with lots of pretty galsI've had a lotta fun.But they always mentioned diomond ringsAnd wanna tie the knotBut you can't raise a wife on nothingAnd nothing is all I've got.I said, hey, I'm a poor poor boyWell, I got no car and my horse went lameI got no friends that I can nameBut step up close and hear me, honI'm just a poor boy looking for fun.--- Instrumental ---Well, my reputation ain't the bestBut my heart is never blueI got no income tax to payNo worries, boy like you.I've got no one to tie me downEvery day's my lucky dayIf you wanna be happy just like meHear what I have to say.I said, hey, I'm a poor poor boyWell, I got no car and my horse went lameI got no friends that I can nameBut step up close and hear me, honI'm just a poor boy looking for fun...
