he's a poorboy 

he lives on the street 

he's got no money 

and no place 

to sleep 

he shops at goodwill 

then he buys some wine 

he picks through dumpsters 

where he likes to dine 



he's a poorboy 

he lives on the street 

he's got no money 

and no place to sleep 

he'll wash your windows 

for a buck-o-nine 

he don't pay taxes 

he hasn't got a dime 



[chorus:]

ooh he tells me 

he'll work for food [2x]
