Poor Boy Like Me Lyrics - Charley Pride

(Alex Zanetis) 

She grew up in the backwood country found her dreams in movie magazines 

Now she's gone looking for her castle what chance is there for a poor boy like me 

City lights, oh you took my darling and the love that she promised me 

After wine and big city parties what chance is there for a poor boy like me? 

Sold my house to Raverend Smith last Sunday left my farm with Abraham McGee 

Had to go and rescue my darling from the life like your city folks lead 

I found her dressed in fancy silks and satin spending money like it grew on trees 

Living high in a big white mansion what chance is there for a poor boy like me?
