The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
It's a long way down from riches to rags
But if you can wear a cotton dress with pride
Then come on down from riches to rags
If a poor man's love can't keep you satisfied
Before you take my hand and tell your other man goodbye
Make sure you want to give up all the things that he can't buy
If you want my love there's no turning back
It's a long way down from riches to rags
[ steel - guitar ]
Oh before you take my hand...
It's a long way down from riches to rags
