Rich man's got his picture
on the cover of a magazine
There's a pampered life with
a trophy wife and his long black limosines
He's got all the money in
the whole wide world and toys he'll never use
But he don't know a damn thing
'bout when a poor man gets the blues
Rich man thinks his
shoes are made to walk wherever he wants
From the top of all them high rise
buildings to the bottom of the honkytonks
He'll step on everything in between
but he won't walk a mile in my shoes
And he don't know a damn thing
'bout when a poor man gets the blues
He thinks his money rules
the world and he don't give a damn
'Bout a low class backwoods country
boy from deep south Alabam
He uses folks like me
just to keep his sorry ass amused
Well son you'd better watch
your back when a poor man gets the blues
Rich man waltzed right
into her life swept her off her feet
For all his fame and his fortune
Lord knows I couldn't compete
When he took her love away from me
I had nothin' else to lose
So I taught that rich man just
what happens when a poor man gets the blues
He thinks his money rules
the world and he don't give a damn
'Bout a low class backwoods country
boy from deep south Alabam
He uses folks like me
just to keep his sorry ass amused
Well son you'd better watch
your back when a poor man gets the blues
