As long as I've got a darlin' like you
Can't buy a house, can't buy a lot
Ain't gotta be, ain't gotta fly
But what I got is a heart full
They call me poor boy, poor boy, poor boy
But ain't it lonesome and
Cause I could never be a poor boy
As long as I've got a darling like you
They call me poor boy, poor boy, poor boy
Cause I could never, never be a poor boy
As long as I've got a dog to like
