I still get a cheer in my eye when someone in need passes by
I still lean to the right like before I guess that comes from being poor

I guess that comes from being poor a welcome --- is always at my door
But I give all I can and I give more I guess that comes from being poor

Easy come easy go get some scared I'm proud of what I have and I take care
You don't forget what you've learned from a board
I guess that comes from being poor
I guess that comes from being poor...
[ guitar ][ steel ]
My God means everything to me my favorite song is country tears in beer
I'm still --- with my knees on the floor I guess that comes from being poor
I guess that comes from being poor...
