Songtexte Po' Boy - Burl Ives




---------------
As I sat down to see how the cards read
I could not hold my hand
Got a thinking about the woman I love
Run away with another man
Run away with another man poor boy
Run away with another man
Got a thinking about the woman I loved
Run away with another man
I went down to the train depot
The train came rumbling by
Well I looked in a window
Saw the woman I loved
And I hung down my head and cried
I hung down my head and cried
I jumped right on that train platform
I ran right down the isle
Well I pulled out my fourty some odd
And I shot that dark-skin child
The night was dark and the wind blew
The rain it sure did rain
Well I ain't got a friend in this whole wide world
Nobody knows my name
