lyrics

Poor Boy Blues

(Broke Down Down Town)
Dying from the inside out
Poverty decorates the streets
when there ain't no rich around

(Chorus)
Poor boy blues
poor boy chooses
Poor boy lose the poor boy blues
Poor boy blues
poor boy chooses
Poor boy lose the poor boy blues

Rich man's heaven
is a poor man's hell
spread the butter 'round big boys
because butter melts in hell
and there ain't nothing left to sell

(Chorus)

Time goes on and on
you ain't done nothing wrong
College cars and parties
and you laugh at this here song
you're eating up the world
with you cancer money dreams
but you just can't take the farmer
or the gypsy out of me

(Chorus x2)

(Broke Down Down Town)

Bandcamp generously sends 85% of your support directly toward my humble living expenses.

This is the only place you will find all of my albums. I have most of them on YouTube Music (Topic Channel) and Spotify now as well. However, music is not free to produce and neither is rent and groceries.

For best audio results, download music at minimum 320 MP3. WAV is best. Thanks 🙏
