Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Sun down, big city
All my money is gone
Young man, and I'm heading
Back to where I used call home
Every blowhard bar jockey
In every town I ever knew
Said if you play hard, you get lucky
Well, it ain't necessarily true
[Verse 2]
Now I'm a poor boy, big city
Small town used to be home
Poor boy, big city
I've never been so all alone
[Verse 3]
Now one time, I had all the good lovin'
Of a young girl in my hand
I left town, never stopped runnin'
I never stopped to understand
Seekin' unknown sensations
And every new sight to be seen
Took a Greyhound to Penn Station
To follow some impossible dream
[Verse 4]
Now I'm a poor boy, big city
Small town used to be home
Poor boy, big city
I've never been so all alone, no, no, no
[Verse 5]
Now for all you sum'bitches
Dreamin' out the back of some mall
Thinkin' somewhere else it all happens
Well, it don't happen at all
I get by best that I'm able
Long as I'm gettin' stoned
Got the whole world comin' at me on cable
I've never been so all alone
[Verse 6]
Now I'm a poor boy, big city
Small town used to be home
Poor boy, big city
I've never been so all alone
[Verse 7]
I'm a poor boy, big city
Small town used to be home
I'm a poor boy, big city
I've never been so all alone, oh
[Verse 8]
I'm a poor boy, yeah
(Small town used to be home)
Poor boy
(Small town used to be home)
I'm a poor boy
(Small town used to be home)
I'm a poor boy
