Lyrics
Poor boy, poor boy, poor boy long ways from home
I was down in Lou'siana, doin' as I please
Now I'm in Texas, I've got to work or leave
Poor boy, poor boy, poor boy long ways from home
"If your home in Lou'siana, what you doin' over here?"
Say, "My home ain't in Texas, and I sure don't care"
Poor boy, poor boy, poor boy long ways from home
I don't care if the boat don't never land
'Cause I like to stay on water as long as any man
Poor boy, poor boy, poor boy long ways from home
Poor boy, poor boy, poor boy long ways from home
And my boat come a-rockin' just like a drunken man
And my home's on the water and I sure don't like land
Poor boy, poor boy, poor boy a long ways from home
Writer(s): W.b. Mcgnee
