0:02Jack White - Hip (Eponymous) Poor Boy
0:16Well I get into the game, but it's always the same
0:19I'm the man with the name, Hip Eponymous Poor Boy, boy
0:26Call me whatever you may, I ain't stoppin' the train
0:29I got a ? full of ?, Hip Eponymous Poor Boy, boy
0:36And I know that I can't defeat you
0:41Yea, you don't worry now, I ain't going to preach to you
0:47Well, there ya go
0:49But I'll be going right there with you
0:52Yeah wherever you'll be, you'll be lookin' at me
0:58But don't get out of your chair
0:59Put a bow in your hair, you might be makin' 'em stare
1:02So leave the care to the poor boy, the boy
1:07And that's the name of the game
1:09Keep on stayin' the same, ain't nobody to blame
1:11Nobody but the poor boy, the poor boy
1:17Well okay, so you fell asleep today
1:22What's funny to me though is that you did that yesterday
1:28You might think I'm mad
1:30To do all the things that I don't need to do
1:33But while you're laughin' at me, well I'll be laughin' at you
1:39So I get into the game, but always keep it the same
1:42And I'll be usin' your name, but they'll be yellin' at me "Poor boy, boy"
1:48But I'll be happy for you, cause you got nothin' to do
1:51And I'll be singin' the blues, walkin' around singin' "Poor boy, boy"
1:58Sometimes a cold shiver comes over me
2:03And it turns me on when the song takes over me
2:09But alright, I can't fight it the odds are against me
2:14But I can't sit still
2:17Because I know that I will
2:20And you'll be watching me girl, takin' over the world
2:23Let the stripes unfurl, gettin' rich singin' "Poor boy, boy"
2:29And I'll be comin' to play, I do it every day
2:32And the title will stay, Hip Eponymous Poor Boy, boy (Yeah)
