Rich Man, Poor Boy

Rich Man, Poor Boy - Joe Ely

Well a poor boy's his got one thing on a rich

Man honey

He's got time to feel he don't have to deal

All of his money

So if you want me you've gotta take me just

The way that I am

I'm a poor boy my hearts on fire I'm a travelin' man

If you wanna be alonly sleepin' in yer bed in

All your finery

Go ahead and find someone

With a heart as cold as stone

But don't come a knockin' when you wake up all alone

'Cause a poor boy's got one thing on a rich

Man honey

He don't have t' pretend he's got a world to

Win all of his money

So If you want me gotta take me just the

Way that I am

I'm a poor boy my hearts on fire I'm a travelin' man

If you wanna be longly sleepin' in yer bed in

All your diamond rings

Go and find someone

With a heart as cold as stone

But don't come a knockin' when you wake up all lonly

'Cause a poor boy's got one thing on a rich

Man honey

He knows the gift to love is a bundle above

A whole mountain of money

So If you want me take me just the

Way that I am

I'm a poor boy my hearts on fire I'm a travelin' man

I'm a poor boy my hearts on fire I'm not
