Poor Man's Son Lyrics

I was a boy I was a good little boy

Wantin in the playground fun

They said ah na ney boy you can't play

Cause you were born a poor man's son

I met a girl she was a pretty little girl

Would you be my only one

She said meet me where nobody can see

Cause you were born a poor man's son

I spent all my lifetime

Thinking what I coulda done

While I worked my fingers to the bone

I met a man he was business man

I said I'm a hard working son of a gun

He said you know the rules

You should've stayed in school

Cause you were born a poor man's son SOLO

I spent all my lifetime

Thinking what I coulda done

While I worked my fingers to the bone

I met a guy he was a crazy guy

He said I'm going to get me some

Let's go across the tracks where

They keep that jack

All we need is a little black gun

They got the hounds and the tracked us down

They said we know what you have done

You're gonna do the time it's gonna fit the crime

You shoulda shot a poor man's son

You shoulda shot a poor man's son

You shoulda shot a poor man's son
