David Johansen And The Harry Smiths - Poor Boy Blues lyrics

Poor boy, poor boy Poor boy a long way from home I was down in Louisiana Just doin' as I please Now I'm in Texas I got to work or leave Poor boy, poor boy Poor boy a long way from home If your home's in Louisiana What you doin' over here? 'Cause my home ain't in Texas And I sure don't care Poor boy, poor boy Poor boy a long way from home I don't care If the boat don't never land I like stayin' on the water Just as long as any man Poor boy, poor boy Poor boy a long way from home Poor boy, poor boy Poor boy a long way from home And my boat come a rockin' Just like a drunken man And my home's is on the water And I sure don't like land Poor boy, poor boy Poor boy a long way from home
