Poor House Lyrics - Traveling Wilburys - Traveling Wilburys

You walk in, half past nine 

Lookin' like a queen 

Serving me with papers 

Calling me obscene 

Woman, I've tried so hard 

Just to do my best 

They're gonna put me in the poor house 

And you'll take all the rest 

Up all day, down all night 

Working on the job 

Everything I do is wrong 

I always end up robbed 

Woman I try so hard 

Done all I can do 

They're gonna put me in the poor house 

Leave all the best for you

(Ooh, in the poor house) 

(Ooh, in the poor house) Oh 

If a drove a pulpwood truck 

Would you love me more? 

Would you bring me diamonds 

And hang around my door 

Woman, I've done my best 

They're ain't much left for me 

They're gonna put me in the poor house 

And throw away the key 

(In the poor house) 

(Ooh, in the poor house) 

You walk in, half past nine 

Lookin' like a queen 

Serving me with papers 

Calling me obscene
