Howlin' Wolf - Poor Boy Lyrics






I'm a poor boy, I'm a long way from home
I'm a poor boy, I'm a long way from home
What the others do, the world can't do me no harm
I'm a poor boy, a long way from home

Babe I can't stay here long, babe I can't stay here long
What the others do, the world can't do me no harm
I'm a poor boy, I'm a long way from home

Well my, baby's dead and gone
Well my, baby's dead and gone
Well, well, well, well I'm a long way from home
I'm a poor boy, I'm a long way from home

And the world, can't do me no harm
And the world, can't do me no harm
Oh, no no no no, I'm a long way from home

World can't do me no harm
World can't do me no harm
World can't do me no harm

    "Im the man of many folks use my name, but they dont wanna, let me make no money, Im da tail dragga, I am da natural tail dragga. They dun quit callin me da wolf. The numba im finta come out wit now, Im mo get up in da monin, and hit dat damn highway 49, get outta dis town."
