Β 

Am Some people say I’m a C no-count,
F Others say I’m no C good
But C I’m just a F natural born C travellin’ man,

G Doin’ what I think I Am should, Poor Boy
G Doin’ what I think I Am should.

+ + + And I C don’t give a F damn
About a C Greenback F dollar,
C Spend it F fast as I C can F
C For a wailin’ F song and a C good F guitar
G The only things that I Am understand, Poor Boy,

G The only things that I Am understand

When I was a little baby, My momma said, “Hey son
Travel where you will and grow to be a man
And sing what must be sung, Poor Boy,
Sing what must be sung.”

Now that I’m a grown man, I’ve traveled here and there.
I’ve learned that a bottle of brandy and a song
The only ones who ever cared, Poor Boy,

The only ones who ever cared.
