Steve Earle - Poor Boy lyrics

[Verse 1] I was born on the other side of town Everybody over here just puts me down I never thought about it much Till the first time I saw you Uh oh, what's a poor boy going to do It's bad enough to love you from afar Me down here and you up where you are If you hadn't given me that look That's all it took it's true Uh oh, what's a poor boy going to do Baby what's a poor boy got, not a heck of a lot Just a heart that's true One thing he sure doesn't need is A heart that bleeds and these lovesick blues [Chorus] I know a poor boy can't go far Baby, maybe someday he drive your car And I can look in my rear view, into those eyes of blue Uh oh what's a poor boy going to do [Verse 2] Baby what's a poor boy got, not a heck of a lot Just a heart that's true One thing he sure doesn't need is A heart that bleeds and these lovesick blues [Chorus] [Outro] Uh oh what's a poor boy going to do
