Poor Boy

Michelle Shocked

Listen to me people
It's a sad tale that I tell
He was bound for heaven
But the poor boy went to hell

He was a poor boy
He was a poor boy
He was a poor poor boy
In our hearts there was no joy
Oh how we cried
The day he died
And we had ourselves a time
For that poor boy out on the Second Line

The wedding date was set
The money had been saved
But he went to the casino
And he gambled it away

He was a poor boy
Yeah a poor boy
He was a poor poor boy
In our hearts there was no joy
Oh how we cried
The day he died
And had ourselves a time
For that poor boy out on the Second Line

He tried to change the subject
When he told his future wife
Well that's when she did object
And she took the poor boy's life

He was a poor boy
A poor boy
He was a poor poor boy
In our hearts there was no joy
Oh how we cried
The day he died
And we had ourselves a time
For that poor boy out on the Second Line

Now the moral of our story
It is so sad to say
Save your money for your funeral
When you gamble it away

He was a poor boy
A poor boy
He was a poor poor boy
In our hearts there was no joy
Oh how we cried
The day he died
And we had ourselves a time
For that poor boy out on the Second...
Oh-oh he was a poor boy
He was a poor boy
He was a poor boy
He was a poor boy
He was a poor boy
He was a poor boy
He was a poor boy
