I'm A Poor Rich Man
Lyrics to "I'm A Poor Rich Man" sung by The Happy Goodmans:
I'm a poor rich man, yes, I'm a poor rich man.
Oh you see it really happened to me, I'm a millionaire.
I know that I am poor but I've got a lot more
Than many rich folks that I know.
I've got a home in the sky that money couldn't buy,
And I'm a poor rich man.
We usually judge a man by the clothes that he wears,
By the car he's ridin' in.
And you can usually tell if he's doin' very well by the house he's livin' in.
But I am here to say that it don't work that way
With everybody I know.
Because I just got acquainted with some poor rich folks
A little while ago
I'm a poor rich man, I'm a poor, poor rich man.
Oh you see it really happened to me, I'm a millionaire.
I know that I am poor but I've got a lot more
Than many rich folks that I know.
I've got a home in the sky that money couldn't buy,
And I'm a poor rich man.
When a man is rich with this world's goods
He's usually got a lot of friends.
They all want to try to live so high
When they know that it's a sin.
But even if I could, I don't believe I would
Want the riches of this old world.
And when it's time to go, I'll be glad to know
That I'm a poor, poor rich man.
I'm a poor rich man, I'm a poor, poor rich man.
Oh you see it really happened to me, I'm a millionaire.
I know that I am poor but I've got a lot more
Than many rich folks that I know.
I've got a home in the sky that money didn't buy,
And I'm a poor rich man.
