Poor Boy

Broke and lonely in kansas
My baby said goodbye
When i found her in new orleans
I said, give me one more try
I'm not a poor boy (oh no)
I'm not a poor boy (oh no)
I'm not a poor boy (oh no)
No, i'm not a poor boy

All the time i had money
She was at my side
We can have those times again
Don't you run away or hide
I'm not a poor boy (oh no)
I'm not a poor boy (oh no)
I'm not a poor boy (oh no)
No, i'm not a poor boy

Wish i had a picture of that look on your face
When you saw me walking up to you in your place
Just when you were thinking i was forever gone
I came in from nowhere like a wind on a storm

Lady luck has been so good
After all this time
I can buy you anything you want
It's all here on the line
I'm not a poor boy (oh no)
I'm not a poor boy (oh no)
I'm not a poor boy (oh no)
No, i'm not a poor boy, yeah!

If you don't believe me take a look at my car
People look at me like i was some movie star
In my brand new suit i knock the ladies all dead
What more can i do to make you shake up your head

Rich and famous in kansas
Now i'll have to go
Why should i stay in new orleans?
It don't matter anymore
I'm not a poor boy (oh no)
I'm not a poor boy (oh no)
I'm not a poor boy (oh no)
No, i'm not a poor boy

I'm not a poor boy
I'm not a poor boy
I'm not a poor boy
