Poor boy blues

It's easy to see a poor boy's blues When he's working every day It's harder to be there in his shoes He was born to be that way If I tell you tomorrow I'm leaving Would you understand the reason why?

A poor boy works hard for his living But a rich man he plays to pass the time So goodbye, pleased to know you We had some laughs along the way But I have to be leaving And there's nothing you can do to make me stay
