ray lamontagne - poor boy lyrics
[verse 1]
well, i used to be a poor boy just like you
used to walk alone, boy, just like you
gave my heart to sweet mary and she told me the truth
yes, i used to be a poor boy just like you
yes, i used to be a poor boy just like you
[chorus]
listen to me now, children
say “yes sir”, say “yes sir“, say “yes sir”
listen to me now, listen to me now
a poor boy, a poor boy, a poor boy
[verse 2]
well, i used to be a poor boy as a matter of fact
my mama raised the children, yeah
a one room shack
gave my heart to sweet mary and she don’t give it back
yes, i used to be a poor boy as a matter of fact
my mama raised the children in a one room shack
[chorus]
listen to me now, children
say “yes sir”, say “yes sir“, say “yes sir”
listen to me now, listen to me now
poor boy, a poor boy, a poor boy
[verse 3]
well, i used to be a poor boy, livin’ in sin
but sinnin’ only led me to the shape i’m in
i gave my heart to mary and she called me a good friend
yes, i used to be a poor boy livin’ in sin
well, i gave my heart to mary and she called me a friend
[chorus]
listen to me now, children
say “yes sir”, say “yes sir“, say “yes sir”
listen to me now, listen to me now
poor boy, a poor boy, a poor boy
(play it, son
alright now)
[verse 4]
now, i used to be a poor boy just like you
used to walk alone, boy, just like you
gave my heart to mary and she told me the good truth
yes, i used to be a poor boy just like you
yes, i used to be a poor boy just like you
[chorus]
listen to me now, children
say “yes sir”, say “yes sir“, say “yes sir”
listen to me now, listen to me now
