It won't work, poor boy, don't you try again Fate took away your love and you can't win You can sing the blues all to yourself But while you're singing She's with someone else, poor boy While you're singing she's with someone else Poor boy, I'm sorry you're so blue But don't forget there's more than one of you Poor boy, I'm sorry, you're so sad Time will heal the pain won't be so bad, poor boy Time will heal the pain won't be so bad Let's forget it, poor boy and let's ride alright Bad luck can be good luck in disguise Someday new love may come to call Poor boy, we'll be rich men after all, poor boy We'll be rich men after all
