Intro

 (4x Riff)

When I was born you know I couldn't speak and go

 My mother worked each day And she learned me to say

Mother and father and son Sister and uncle are fun

 And she learned me to say Life is so hard each day

Poor Boy poor boy you must know

Poor boy the life is a hard road

Poor boy poor boy you must say

Life is very hard to stay
