Poor Man's Gray Lyrics - Matthew Good Band

From Chicago to Miami 

Shout New York, shout LA 

Today we take the White House 

And paint it poor man's gray 

From London to Damascus 

Cry Freetown in Marseilles 

Today we take the blue sky 

And paint it poor man's gray 

My mama she done told me 

There's heart and then there's hate 

If one of them is inside of you 

The other one it ain't 

From the alleys on the East side 

Where the train it throws the weight 

Brother take that cheeky smile 

And paint it poor man's gray 

From Berlin to Havana 

From Beijing to Bombay 

Today we take the blue sky 

And paint it poor man's gray
