Poor Man's Blues

Money cant buy happiness no it cant buy you love Money cant buy happiness no it cant buy you love It cant even buy you a favour from the lord up above
I had me a woman child she swore she was all mine I had me a woman child she swore she was all mine Until the day she fell in love with that dollar sign
I gambled all my money; out on that losing spree well I gambled all my money on that losing spree big boss man cut me down now Im out on the streets(I sleep with the rats)
I rather cry in a Cadillac and buy me some new shoes I rather cry in a Cadillac and buy me some new shoes All the banks would cut me some slack and id lose these poor mans blues
Money cant buy happiness no it cant buy you love Money cant buy happiness no it cant buy you love it cant even buy you a favour from the lord up above
