Poor Sam Jones

Poor Sam Jones

He left his family twenty years ago

Now he's rich as he can be

But he lives his life in misery

He was such a fool

To go and say goodbye

To three crying children and a nagging wife

But times were hard and life was fast

Now loneliness has caught him at last

He looked so overwhelmed

He's getting gray

His youngest child is a man today

If - If only could live back then

He'd never make that same mistake again

Well now he's got money

And he's got friends

But none will stick to the bitter bitter end

With with all his money and all that he owns

Poor Sam Jones will die alone
