E B7 E
There's a whole lot of people looking down their noses at me
B7 E
Cause I didn't come from a wealthy family
A E
There were ten of us living in a two room shack
B7 E
On the banks of the river by the railroad tracks
A E
We kept chickens in a pen in the back
B7
And everybody said we were Po' Folks
E B7 E
My daddy was a farmer but all he ever raised was us
B7 E
He dug a forty-foot well struck thirty six gallons of dust
A E
The Salvation Army gave us clothes to wear
B7 E
F# man from the county came to cut our hair
A E
We lived next door to a millionaire
B7 E
But we wasn't nothing but Po' Folks
A E
We was Po' Folks living in a rich folks world
B7 E
We sure was a hungry bunch
A E
If the wolf had ever come to our front door
F#7 B7
He'd a had to brought a picnic lunch
E B7 E
My granddaddy's pension was a dollar and thirty-three cents
B7 E
That was ten dollars less than the landlord wanted for rent
A E
The landlord's letters got nasty indeed
B7 E
He wrote get out but Pa couldn't read
A E
And we were too broke to even pay heed
B7 E
But that's how it is when you're Po' Folks
A E
We was Po' Folks living in a rich folks world
B7 E
We sure was a hungry bunch
A E
If the wolf had ever come to our front door
F#7 B7
He'd a had to brought a picnic lunch
E B7 E
But we had something in our house money can't buy
B7 E
Kept us warm in the winter cool when the sun was high
A E
For whenever we didn't have food enough
B7 E
And the howling winds would get pretty rough
A E
We patched the cracks and set the table with love
B7 E
Cause that's what you do when you're Po' Folks
B7 E
And we wasn't nothing but Po' Folks
B7 E
My mom and my dad was Po' Folks
B7 E
My brother and my sister was Po' Folks
B7 E
My dog and my cat was Po' Folks
B7 E
And even the Po' Folks was Po' Folks
