Poor Boy

Poor boy, poor boy are you long way from home
Poor boy are you down and out and all alone
Poor boy, poor boy did you spend your very last dime
Poor boy what you gonna do you ain't got much time
Ain't nobody for better or worse
Can't find nobody who cares
Can't you find a handy noose
You're so lonely and blue
Somebody there for better or worse
Somebody there who cares
You can find your heavy noose
And chateau for you
