Poor Man's Dream Lyrics - Last Of A Dyin' Breed (special Edition) - Lynyrd Skynyrd

There ain't no poor man 

Born with a silver spoon 

And there ain't no wise man 

Who learned it all in school 

A politician's promise 

Can make you feel like a fool 

But when they get the power 

They're the first to break the golden rule 

We work that 40 acres like riders on a mule 

Climb that mountain 

Reach the sky 

Hangin' on for a good laugh 

For a piece of that American pie 

Hey nothin's easy 

Nothin's for free 

In the world of dog eat dog 

Oh people, that's a poor man's dream 

Hey Mr. Walton 

Lend me a dime 

You know I'll repay ya 

But it's gonna take me some time 

I'm standing at the crossroads 

Just about to roll the dice 

I got a dream in my heart 

Whatever it takes 

I know I gotta pay the price 

We work that 40 acres like riders on a mule 

Climb that mountain 

Reach the sky 

Hangin' on for a good laugh 

For a piece of that American pie 

Hey nothin's easy 

Nothin's for free 

In the world of dog eat dog 

Oh people, that's a poor man's dream 

We work that 40 acres like riders on a mule 

Climb that mountain 

Reach the sky 

Hangin' on for a good laugh 

For a piece of that American pie 

Hey nothin's easy 

Nothin's for free 

In the world of dog eat dog 

Oh people, that's a poor man's dream 

Hey nothin's easy 

Nothin's for free 

In the world of dog eat dog 

Oh people, that's a poor man's dream 

Oh 

It's a poor man's dream
