LYRICS:
POOR BOY
(McEntire)

It won’t work, poor boy, don’t you try again?
Think to go with your love that you can’t win
You can sing the blue song to yourself
But while you’re singing, she’s with someone else
Poor boy, while you’re singing, she’s with someone else

Love is strange, but poor boy it has to be
In more than a heart’s weight, you’re just like me
You and I can try to face the fault
But we both know there won’t be back no more
Poor boy, we both know there won’t be back no more

Poor boy, I’m sorry you’re so blue
But don’t forget there’s more than one of you
Poor boy, I’m sorry you’re so sad
But time will heal, the pain won’t be so bad
Poor boy, time will heal, the pain won’t be so bad

Let’s forget poor boy and let’s dry our eyes
Bad luck can be good luck in this skies
Someday new love may come to call
Poor boy, we’ll be rich man after all, poor boy
Poor boy, we’ll be rich man after all
