Written by：Jack White

Well I get into the game but it's always the same

I'm the man with the name hip eponymous poor boy poor boy

Call me whatever you may I ain't stoppin' the train

I got a pill for the pain hip eponymous poor boy poor boy

And I know that I can't defeat you

But you don't worry now I ain't going to preach to you

Well there ya go

But I'll be going right there with you

Yeah wherever you'll be you'll be lookin' at me

But don't get out of your chair

Put a bow in your hair you might be makin''em stare

So leave the care to the poor boy the poor boy

And that's the name of the game

Keep on stayin' the same ain't nobody to blame

Nobody but the poor boy the poor boy

Well okay so you fell asleep today

What's funny to me though is that you did that yesterday

You might think I'm mad

Doing all the things that I don't need to do

But while you're laughin' at me well I'll be laughin' at you

So I get into the game but always keep it the same

And I'll be usin' your name

But they'll be yellin' at me poor boy poor boy

But I'll be happy for you cause you got nothin' to do

And I'll be singin' the blues walkin' around singin' poor boy poor boy

Sometimes a cold shiver comes over me

And it turns me on when the song takes over me

But alright I can't fight it the odds are against me

But I can't sit still

Because I know that I will

And you'll be watching me girl takin' over the world

Let the stripes unfurl gettin' rich singin' poor boy poor boy

And I'll be comin' to play I do it every day

And the title will stay hip eponymous poor boy poor boy yeah
