letra de just as poor as before - lazy afternoon
[verse 1]
my riches, they are few
just enough to make a do
to get me from the cradle to death’s door
though i struggle, and i save
i’m an economic slave
and i’m always just as poor as before
[chorus]
just as poor as before
my money ain’t no more
i’m always just as poor as before
yes, i have prayed to god
to give me better odds
but i’m always just as poor as before
[verse 2]
“you’ll never win”, they say
“if you don’t take a chance and play”
i thought today as i walked out the door
so, i played the lottery
but fortunе did not smile on me
so, i’m always just as poor as beforе
[chorus]
just as poor as before
my money ain’t no more
i’m always just as poor as before
yes, i have prayed to god
to give me better odds
but i’m always just as poor as before
[verse 3 ]
a big banker did suggest that i try to invest
and pretty soon i would get my big score
but everything went bust
all my money turned to dust
so, i’m always just as poor as before
[chorus]
oh, just as poor as before
my money ain’t no more
i’m always just as poor as before
yes, i have prayed to god
to give me better odds
but i’m always just as poor as before
[verse 4]
my last-ditch attempt would be to stage a major robbery
then get away fast to some foreign shore
but it all went wrong somehow
and i’m in the jailhouse now
and i’m always just as poor as before
[chorus]
oh, just as poor as before
my money ain’t no more
i’m always just as poor as before
yes, i have prayed to god
to give me better odds
but i’m always just as poor as before
