C G7 C
There's a whole lot of people looking down their noses at me
G7 C
Cause I didn't come from a wealthy family
F C
There were ten of us living in a two room shack
G7 C
On the banks of the river by the railroad tracks
F C
We kept chickens in a pen in the back
G7
And everybody said we were Po' Folks
C G7 C
My daddy was a farmer but all he ever raised was us
G7 C
He dug a forty-foot well struck thirty six gallons of dust
F C
The Salvation Army gave us clothes to wear
G7 C
D man from the county came to cut our hair
F C
We lived next door to a millionaire
G7 C
But we wasn't nothing but Po' Folks
F C
We was Po' Folks living in a rich folks world
G7 C
We sure was a hungry bunch
F C
If the wolf had ever come to our front door
D7 G7
He'd a had to brought a picnic lunch
C G7 C
My granddaddy's pension was a dollar and thirty-three cents
G7 C
That was ten dollars less than the landlord wanted for rent
F C
The landlord's letters got nasty indeed
G7 C
He wrote get out but Pa couldn't read
F C
And we were too broke to even pay heed
G7 C
But that's how it is when you're Po' Folks
F C
We was Po' Folks living in a rich folks world
G7 C
We sure was a hungry bunch
F C
If the wolf had ever come to our front door
D7 G7
He'd a had to brought a picnic lunch
C G7 C
But we had something in our house money can't buy
G7 C
Kept us warm in the winter cool when the sun was high
F C
For whenever we didn't have food enough
G7 C
And the howling winds would get pretty rough
F C
We patched the cracks and set the table with love
G7 C
Cause that's what you do when you're Po' Folks
G7 C
And we wasn't nothing but Po' Folks
G7 C
My mom and my dad was Po' Folks
G7 C
My brother and my sister was Po' Folks
G7 C
My dog and my cat was Po' Folks
G7 C
And even the Po' Folks was Po' Folks
