Poor Boy Long Way from Home

歌詞

This is called "Poor Boy" Me and poor boy was travelling Travelling a long way from home Me and poor boy got brought off Got brought off and praised and found My dear mother, she got worried When we was down all in the farm Mama, she called the farmer And he told her that it's an prison ? My dear mother got on the farm She called down a little far My mother talked to the sergeant He wanted not have mercy on me Well this sergeant told dear mother He went ? We didn't have no one To come and get us out of bail Poor boy he got all worried Calm walking to ? town I said "Poor boy don't worry Our mother get us out of prison bound" Well this sergeant told dear mother He went ? We didn't have no one To come and get us out of bail Oh, my mother she got worried She couldn't get them to ? So one Sunday morning My mother, she drove to the farm Well the sergeant met my mother Drove on up the the gate My mother she told the sergeant She ? has no two hundred dollar bills Well, my mother she kneeled down ?, pardon me Oh, ? please Sergeant Will you please sir have some mercy on me? My dear mother, "She will cryin'" Told the sergeant, then she broke down He said "These boys promised They will not ? on my train" I said "Listen though poor boy Don't be worry crime Somebody, somebody, somewhere Gonna get us out of prison bound"
