nick drake - poor boy lyrics
never sing for my supper
i never help my neighbor
never do what is proper
for my share of labor
i’m a poor boy and i’m a rover
count your coins and
throw them over my shoulder
i may grow older
n-body knows how cold it grows
and n-body sees how shaky my knees
n-body cares how steep my stairs
and n-body smiles if i cross their stiles
oh, poor boy
so sorry for himself
oh, poor boy
so worried for his health
you may say every day
where will he stay tonight?
never know what i came for
seems that i’ve forgotten
never ask what i came from
or how i was begotten
i’m a poor boy and i’m a ranger
things i say
may seem stranger than sunday
changing to monday
n-body knows how cold it flows
and n-body feels worn down heels
n-body’s eyes make the skies
n-body spreads aching heads
oh, poor boy
so worried for his life
oh, poor boy
so keen to take a wife
he’s a mess but he’ll say ‘yes’
if you just dress in white
n-body knows how cold it blows
and n-body sees how shaky are my knees
n-body cares how steep my stairs
and n-body smiles if you cross their stiles
oh, poor boy
so sorry for himself
oh, poor boy
so worried for his health
you may say every day
where will he stay tonight?
oh, poor boy
so worried for his life
oh, poor boy
so keen to take a wife
oh, poor boy
so sorry for himself
oh, poor boy
so worried for his health
oh, poor boy
so worried for his health
