I helped you baby, you couldn't help yourself
|
Now, you on your feet, helpin' somebody else
|
I'm a poor man, but a good man, been treated wrong
|
|
She walked off and left me, she didn't say a word
|
Wasn't nothin' she knowed, but somethin' she heard
|
I'm a poor man, but a good man, been treated wrong
|
|
If you don't b'lieve me, people, wait a right round and see
|
Somebody gonna mistreat you, like you mistreated me
|
|
I walked down to the station, I looked up on the wall
|
My money was too light, I didn't go nowhere at all
|
I'm a poor man, but a good man, been treated wrong
|
