The Poorest Man On Earth

Like you, my love, and everyone
I wanted to be free
I've been running all my life along
There's nothing I've done

Ain't got a dollar, ain't got a dime
And I miss you so, my love
I'm poor as an unborn child
I guess that's my only crime

I'm feeling like I'm bound in chains
I can't get loose of them
I hope my dream is not in vain
And I'll come home again

Remember me, my precious love
Though I ain't nothing worth
The only thing I'm guilty of
I'm the Poorest Man On Earth
