<pre><font size='+2'>PO  FOLKS lyrics FARON YOUNG</font><br>(Bill Anderson)<br />
<br />
There`s a whole lotta people lookin` down their noses at me<br />
`Cause I didn`t come from a wealthy family<br />
There was ten of us livin` in a two room shack<br />
On the banks of the river by the railroad track.<br />
And we kept chickens in a pen in the back<br />
And everybody said we was po` folks.<br />
<br />
My daddy was a farmer but all he ever raised was us<br />
Dug a forty foot well struck thirty-six gallons of dust<br />
Salvation Army gave us clothes to wear<br />
A man from the county came to cut our hair.<br />
We lived next door to a millionare<br />
But that`s how it is when you`re po` folks.<br />
<br />
We was po` folks livin` in a rich folks world<br />
We sure was a hungry bunch<br />
And if the wolf would ever come to our front door<br />
He`d had to brought a picnic lunch.<br />
<br />
My grandaddy`s pension was a dollar and thirty-three cents<br />
That was ten dollars less than the landlord wanted for rent<br />
Oh, the landlord`s letters got nasty indeed<br />
He wrote get out but pa couldn`t read.<br />
And we was too broke to even pay heed<br />
And that`s how it is when you`re po` folks.<br />
<br />
And that`s how it is when you`re po` folks.<br />
<br />
We was po` folks livin` in a rich folks world<br />
We sure was a hungry bunch<br />
And if the wolf would ever come to our front door<br />
He`d had to brought a picnic lunch.<br />
<br />
But we had something in our house money can`t buy<br />
Kept us warm in the winter and cool when the sun`s high<br />
For whenever we didn`t have food enough<br />
And the howling winds would get pretty rough.<br />
We patched the cracks and set the table with love<br />
`Cause that`s how it is when you`re po` folks.<br />
<br />
And we wasn`t nothin` but po` folks.<br />
My mama and my papa was po` folks<br />
My sister and my brother was po` folks<br />
My dog and my cat was po` folks<br />
And that`s how it is when you`re po` folks...<br><br><a href='http://www.lyricsbay.com' target='_blank'>LyricsBay</a> | <a href="http://www.lyricsbay.com/po_folks_lyrics-faron_young.html" target='_blank'>PO  FOLKS lyrics FARON YOUNG</a></pre>

(Bill Anderson)

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.
And we kept chickens in a pen in the back
And 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
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 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
And if the wolf would 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
Oh, the landlord`s letters got nasty indeed
He wrote get out but pa couldn`t read.
And we was too broke to even pay heed
And that`s how it is when you`re po` folks.

And 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
And if the wolf would ever come to our front door
He`d had to brought a picnic lunch.

But we had something in our house money can`t buy
Kept us warm in the winter and cool when the sun`s 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 how it is when you`re po` folks.

And we wasn`t nothin` but po` folks.
My mama and my papa was po` folks
My sister and my brother was po` folks
My dog and my cat was po` folks
And that`s how it is when you`re po` folks...
