Poor Boy Down - Mike & The Mechanics[00:00:00]

Written by：Michael Rutherford/Christopher Neil[00:00:02]

He's a poor boy in his pocket[00:01:02]

He's a poor boy in his shoes[00:01:05]

He's done his time[00:01:09]

He's stood in line[00:01:10]

That boy has paid his dues[00:01:12]

He ain't looking for a handout[00:01:15]

He's just looking for a start[00:01:18]

He don't hate anyone[00:01:21]

He don't carry a gun[00:01:23]

You can tell that kid is smart[00:01:24]

So you can't keep that poor boy down[00:01:27]

You can't keep that poor boy down[00:01:30]

You can be unkind[00:01:34]

You can rob him blind[00:01:35]

You can't keep that poor boy down[00:01:37]

Keep that poor boy down[00:01:40]

You can't keep that poor boy down[00:01:43]

You can lie and cheat[00:01:46]

You can chain his feet[00:01:47]

But you can't keep that poor boy down[00:01:49]

And all down throughout the ages[00:02:18]

The kid's been treated rough[00:02:21]

Just take a look[00:02:24]

In any history book[00:02:25]

You can see that times were tough[00:02:27]

Now we move up to the nineties[00:02:30]

Up to the 21st[00:02:34]

One day he'll stand[00:02:36]

A full grown man[00:02:38]

And be the same as all of us[00:02:39]

So you can't keep that poor boy down[00:02:42]

Keep that poor boy down[00:02:46]

You can lock him up[00:02:49]

You can break his cup[00:02:50]

But you can't keep that poor boy down[00:02:52]

Keep that poor boy down[00:02:56]

You can't keep that poor boy down[00:02:58]

You can fight and steal[00:03:01]

You can drag your heels[00:03:03]

You can't keep that poor boy down[00:03:05]

You can't keep that down[00:03:49]

You can kick his a**[00:03:52]

If the kid's got class[00:03:53]

You can't keep that poor boy down[00:03:55]

Keep that poor boy down[00:03:58]

Don't talk them keeping down[00:04:00]

Keep that poor boy down[00:04:02]

Let's stop the truck[00:04:05]

Go back and pick him up[00:04:06]

Keep that poor boy down[00:04:08]

You can't keep them down[00:04:09]

Keep that poor boy down[00:04:11]

Keep that poor boy down[00:04:14]

Keep that poor boy down[00:04:20]

Keep that poor boy down[00:04:23]
