When I lost a job just the other day
I'm gon' lose this one if I don't get a recent pay
Some folks say I'm a irresponsible bloke
And therefore everybody's up there talking 'bout me, now Lord, Lord
Old town folks are talking 'bout poor chubby
Got one life and I'm goin' to live it
Once we love and I'm goin' to give it
Some folks say I'm a low down dirty train
And therefore everybody's up there talking about me, now
(Huh)
Old town folks are talking 'bout poor chubby
If I find myself in jail just the other day
Not a single friend would try to get me bailed
This made me smile as I sing this here song
It goes you know, everybody's up there talking 'bout me
Old town folks are talking 'bout poor chubby
Du, du, du
Du, du, du
Everybody's up there talking about, now Lord
Old town folks are talking about poor chubby
