Текст (слова) песни: Norma Jean - Po` Folks



There`s a whole lotta people lookin` down their noses at me
Cause I didn`t come from a wealthy family
There was ten of us livin` in a two room shack
On the banks of the river by the railroad track
We kept chickens in a pen in the back snd everybody said we was po` folks
My daddy was a farmer but all he ever raised was us
Dug a forty foot well struck thirty six gallons of dust
The Salvation Army gave us clothes to wear
A man from the county came to cut our hair
We lived next door to a millionare but we wadn`t nothin` but po` folks

We was po` folks livin` in a rich folks world we sure was a hungry bunch
If the wolf had ever come to our front door he`d had to brought a picnic lunch
My grandaddy`s pension was a dollar and thirty three cents
That was ten dollars less than the landlord wanted for rent
The landlord`s letters got nasty indeed he wrote get out but pa couldn`t read
We were too broke to even pay heed but that`s how it is when you`re po` folks
We was po` folks livin` in a rich folks world we sure was a hungry bunch...

But we had somethin` in our house money can`t buy
Kept us warm in the winter cool when the sun was high
For whenever we didn`t have food enough
And the howling winds would get pretty rough
We patched the cracks and set the table with love
Cause that`s what you do when you`re po` folks and we wadn`t nothin` but po` folks
My mom and my daddy was po` folks my brother and my sister was po` folks
My dog and my cat was po` folks
