Israelites |
Poor me Israelites |
I get up in the mornin', slaving for bread, sir |
So that every mouth can be fed |
Poor me Israelites |
My wife an' the kids, them a pack up an' a leave me |
Darling, she said, I was yours to be seen |
Poor me Israelites |
My shirt them a-tear up, trousers are gone |
I don’t want to end up like Bonnie and Clyde |
Poor me Israelites |
After a storm, there must be a calm |
They catch me in your farm, you sound your alarm |
Poor me Israelites |
I get up in the mornin', slaving for bread, sir |
So that every mouth can be fed |
Poor me Israelites |
Look, my wife an' the kids, them a pack up an' a leave me |
Darling, she said, I was yours to be seen |
Poor me Israelite |
My shirt them a-tear up, trousers are gone |
I don’t want to end up like Bonnie and Clyde |
Poor me, the Israelite |
Now, after a storm, there must be a calm |
Catch me in your farm, you sound your alarm |
Poor me Israelite |
My wife an' the kids, them a pack up an' a leave me |
Darling, she said, I was yours to be seen |
Poor me Israelite |
My shirt them a-tear up, trousers are gone |
I don’t want to end up like Bonnie and Clyde |
Poor me Israelite, yeah |
I get up in the mornin', slaving for bread, sir |
So that every mouth can be fed |
Poor me Israelites |
I’ma workin', I’ma workin' so hard |
Poor, poor, poor me Israelites |
I’m workin', I’ma workin' so hard |
Poor, poor, poor me Israelites |
Poor me Israelites |
I’m workin', I’ma workin' so hard |
Poor, poor, poor me Israelites |
Oh, yeah, poor me Israelites |
I’m workin', I’ma workin' so hard |
I’ma wonderin', ah wonderin', poor me Israelites |
I’m working, working hard |
Poor me Israelites |
I’m workin', I’ma workin' so hard |
Poor, poor, poor me Israelites |
I’ma wonderin', ah working so hard |
Poor, poor, poor me Israelites |
