Poor People

Poor people are poor people
They don’t understand
A man’s got to make whatever he wants
Take it with his own hands.
Poor people stay poor people
They never get to see
Someone’s got to win in the human race
If it isn’t you then it has to be me.
So smile while you’re making it
Laugh while you’re taking it
Even though you’re faking it
Nobody’s gonna know.
It’s no use mumbling
It’s no use grumbling
Life just isn’t fair
No easy days
No easy ways
Just get out there
and do it!
So sing and they’ll sing your song
Laugh while you’re getting on
Smile and they’ll string along
Nobody’s gonna know.
