Lyrics

I am a poor boy,
I sing for my living.
I walk these streets all quiet,
With my hopes in my jacket pocket.
I hate the city.
The noises they confuse me.
One day I'll find my country,
And put away my jacket 'so long',
Does anybody hear me?
I'll sing for a penny.
Just one coin will do me,
And I'll walk, with my jacket heavy
I don't think God has found me.
Don't think Jesus knows me.
All they've ever given me,
Is this jacket, with its pockets so full now.
Oh...
I once knew a woman.
She showed me through her garden.
She cut me a red carnation,
To put, in my jacket pocket.
Now my voice is booming'.
The flower is still blooming'.
The rain it is pouring,
And I'm glad for my heavy jacket now.
Oh...
I am a poor boy.
I sing for my living.
I walk these streets all quiet,
With my hopes in my jacket pocket.
