============================
They call me poor boy
poor boy, poor boy
But I ain't lonesome and I ain't blue
'cause I could never be a poor boy
As long as I've got a dolly like you
Ain't got a crust, ain't got a cent
Can't buy a jug, can't pay the rent
I got a heart full of dreams
and a lot of memories
And that's enough for me
They call me poor boy
poor boy, poor boy
But I ain't lonesome and I ain't blue
'cause I could never be a poor boy
As long as I've got a dolly like you
Can't buy a house, can't buy a lot
Ain't got a bean, I ain't got a pot
But what I got is a heart full of
love and memories
And that's enough for me
They call me poor boy
poor boy, poor boy
But I ain't lonesome and I ain't blue
'cause I could never be a poor boy
As long as I've got a dolly like you
Don't have a pig, don't have a cow
I don't have a horse to pull a plow
But what I got is a heart full of
love and memories
And that's enough for me
They call me poor boy
poor boy, poor boy
But I ain't lonesome and I ain't blue
'cause I could never be a poor boy
as long as I've got a dolly like
I've a got a dolly like
I've a got a dolly like you
