Lyrics
Poor Man's Gold
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 the feeling that I get holding my brand new baby
Holding on to daddy's thumb just as tightly as he can hold
And it's hearin' people say he looks a lot like his daddy
These things are a poor man's gold
It's the twinkle in the eyes of the gray haired old man we call grandpa
Tellin' tales to the kids that get taller every time there told
And it's knowin' that for a while he's no longer lonely
These things are a poor man's gold
And it's the sweet sleepy sound of your warm gentle breathing
As you cling to me in the night to keep away the cold
And it's the softness of your body there in the darkness
These things are a poor man's gold
