Poor Boy
Supertramp
Can you believe me when I say, there's nothing I like better
Than just to sit here and talk with you
Although I'll rant and I'll rave about one thing and another
The beauty of it is so pure to me
Though I'm a poor boy
I can still be happy
As long as I can feel free
So many people I know, are getting old way too early
- Well are you feelin' kind of weary
Just to impress you with the money they make
- You'd better, you'd better change your theory
One drop of rain, they complain
And it's the same about the wages they're earning
Well, that is not the way I'm gonna be
Don't mind the rain, don't mind snow
Don't mind nothing, If I know
You will be right here with me
We're gonna state our only point of view
How can we all afford to live like you?
This simple life is simply not enough
We have appearances we must keep up
Poor Boy, If that's the way it's gotta be
Poor Boy, It's you for you and me for me
Poor Boy
I've tried all I can, understanding all the fools and all their money
When half of what they've got you know they never will use
Enough to get by suits me fine, I don't care if they think I'm funny
I'm never gonna change my point of view
Don't mind the rain, don't mind snow
Don't mind nothing, if I know
You will be right here with me
All the way
Nah-nah-nah
Don't mind the rain, don't mind snow
Don't mind nothing, if I know
You will be right here with me
