Lyrics

0:31Baby if you really love me
0:35You had better understand
0:39That the silver in your pocket
0:43Ain't no measure of a man
0:47And though the fortunes of our fathers
0:52We aspire to rise above
0:56When you're born into a breed
0:58You're signed in blood
1:00I'm a poor man's son workin all night long
1:04Got a bad guitar and a simple song
1:08You're a rich man's daughter
1:10Look at what you've done
1:12You went and fell in love with a poor man's son
1:23Baby you were born in splendor
1:27To a house of wealth and fame
1:32Your mother was a spender
1:35And you grew up on a stage
1:39And girl you could've loved for money
1:44Could've fooled around for fame
1:47But you went and took a chance
1:49On the real thing
2:08And though the fortunes of our fathers
2:12We aspire to rise above
2:16When you're born into a breed
2:18You're signed in blood
2:21I'm a poor man's son workin all night long
2:25Got a bad guitar and a simple song
2:29You're a rich man's daughter
2:33You're a rich man's daughter
2:36I'm a poor man's son
2:41I'm a poor man's son
2:44I'm a poor man's son
2:46(Poor man's son workin' all night long)
2:49I'm a poor man's son
2:53A poor man's son
2:54(Poor man's son workin' all night long)
2:57I'm a poor man's son
3:00I'm a poor man's son
3:02(Poor man's son workin' all night long)
3:05I'm a poor man's son
3:08I'm a poor man's son
3:11(Poor man's son workin' all night long)
3:13I'm a poor man's son
3:16I'm a poor man's son
3:18(Poor man's son workin' all night long)
3:22I'm a poor man's son
3:24I'm a poor man's son
3:27(Poor man's son workin' all night long)
Baby if you really love me
You had better understand
That the silver in your pocket
Ain't no measure of a man
And though the fortunes of our fathers
We aspire to rise above
When you're born into a breed
You're signed in blood
I'm a poor man's son  workin all night long
Got a bad guitar and a simple song
You're a rich man's daughter
Look at what you've done
You went and fell in love with a poor man's son
Baby you were born in splendor
To a house of wealth and fame
Your mother was a spender
And you grew up on a stage
And girl you could've loved for money
Could've fooled around for fame
But you went and took a chance
On the real thing
And though the fortunes of our fathers
We aspire to rise above
When you're born into a breed
You're signed in blood
I'm a poor man's son  workin all night long
Got a bad guitar and a simple song
You're a rich man's daughter
You're a rich man's daughter
I'm a poor man's son
I'm a poor man's son
I'm a poor man's son
(Poor man's son  workin' all night long)
I'm a poor man's son
A poor man's son
(Poor man's son  workin' all night long)
I'm a poor man's son
I'm a poor man's son
(Poor man's son  workin' all night long)
I'm a poor man's son
I'm a poor man's son
(Poor man's son  workin' all night long)
I'm a poor man's son
I'm a poor man's son
(Poor man's son  workin' all night long)
I'm a poor man's son
I'm a poor man's son
(Poor man's son  workin' all night long)
