[Verse 1]

Get up in the morning, slaving for bread, sir

So that every mouth can be fed

Poor me Israelites

[Verse 2]

Get up in the morning, slaving for bread, sir

So that every mouth can be fed

Poor me, Israelites

[Verse 3]

My wife and my kids, they pack up and a-leave me

Darlin' she said, "I was yours to be seen"

Poor me, Israelites

[Verse 4]

Shirt, them a-tear up, trousers a-go

I don't want to end up like Bonnie and Clyde

Poor me, Israelites

[Verse 5]

After a storm there must be a calm

If you catch me in the farm, you sound your alarm

(Poor) Poor, poor, poor me Israelites

[Verse 6]

I said, I get up in the mornings, slaving for bread, sir

So that every mouth can be fed

Poor me Israelites

[Verse 7]

I said, my wife and my kids, they pack up and a-leave me

Darlin' she said, "I was yours to be seen"

Poor me Israelites

[Verse 8]

Look, shirt them a-tear up, trousers a-go

I don't want to end up like Bonnie and Clyde

(Poor) Poor, poor me Israelites

[Verse 9]

After a storm there must be a calm

If you catch me in the farm, you sound your alarm

Poor me Israelites

(Poor) Poor, poor, poor, poor me Israelites

I'ma wonderin' workin' so a-hard

(Poor) Poor, poor, poor me Israelites

I look a-down and a me say

(Poor) Poor, poor, poor
