Lyrics

Poor boy poor boy look straight ahead
Good times are coming it has been said
Poor boy poor boy do not lose faith
Go right on loving the human race

Born in an old shack on a very cold day
My mother had to work on the following day
Destination poverty very little school
She taught me to respect the golden rule

Poor boy poor boy look straight ahead..

Life has been a struggle moving all the time
Hanging on a piece of thread this world of mine
You mustn't go on living in such regret
What's to be is done you must forget

Poor boy poor boy look straight ahead..
Go right on loving their human race
