You walk in, half past nine

Lookin like a queen

Serving me with papers

Calling me obscene

Woman Ive tried so hard

 Just to do my best

Theyre gonna put me in the poor house

 And youll take all the rest

Intro x1

Working on the job

Woman I try so hard

Done all I can do

Theyre gonna put me in the poor house

Leave all the best for you

Ooooooooo in the poor house

If a drove a pulpwood truck

Would you love me more?

Will you bring me diamonds

And hang around my door

Theyre aint much left for me

Theyre gonna put me in the poor house

And throw away the key

In the poor house

Serving me with papers

Calling me obscene

Woman Ive tried so hard

Just to do my best

Theyre gonna put me in the poor house

Everything I do is wrong

I always end up right

Woman I try so hard

Done all I can do

Leave all the best for you

In the poor house
