Lyrics:

I was born on the other side of town Everybody over there just puts me down I never thought about it much, til the first time I saw you Uh-oh, what's a poor boy gonna do It's bad enough to love you from afar Me down here and you up where you are If you hadn't given me that look, that's all it took it's true U-oh, what's a poor boy gonna do Baby what's a poor boy got, not a heck of a lot Just a heart that's true One thing he sure doesn't need is a heart that bleeds And these lovesick blues I know o poor boy can't go far Baby, maybe someday drive your car I can look in my rearview, into those eyes of blue Uh-oh what's a poor boy gonna do
