Poor Boy Blues Lyrics - Flesh And Blood - Poison

My daddy said, "Son, don't you come to me cryin'" 

Oh, 'cause money don't make you happy, man, oh no no 

He said the grass is always greener, babe 

Every place except where you stand, ay ay ah 

Well, some are born to win, some born to lose 

And sing them poor boy blues 

Watch out! 

Ah! 

I've lived uptown, downtown, Lord, I've lived everywhere 

Almost drowned in the puddle of my own sweat, I swear 

I believe it's due time I get my mansion in old Bel Air 

Like a poor boy blues, poor boy blues 

You don't know how I'm feelin' baby unless you wear my shoes 

Sure as I'm standin' here we got them poor boy blue, yeah 

Friday nights I get tanked up 

And tossed in the local slam 

At least I get three square meals 

Until someone gets me out of this jam 

In the meanwhile all my green 

Is going to uncle Sam 

Like a poor boy blues, poor boy blues 

You don't know how I'm feelin' baby unless you wear my shoes 

Sure as I'm standin' here we got them poor boy blue, yeah 

Ha ha ha, let's walk this dog 

I don't herself now see see 

Bam bam bap baa 

Bam bam bap bap bap baa 

Like a poor boy blues, poor boy blues 

You don't know how I'm feelin' baby unless you wear my shoes 

Sure as I'm standin' here we got them poor boy blue, yeah 

Oh yeah, poor boy blues 

(Poor boy blues) 

Poor boy blues 

(Poor boy blues) 

Poor boy blues 

(Poor boy blues) 

Poor boy blues 

(Poor boy blues) 

Sure as I'm standin' I got them, I got them, ha 

Got them poor mmm boy mmm blue
