Poor man's dream
by Lynyrd Skynyrd

There ain´t no poor man
Born with a silver spoon
And there ain´t no wise man
Who learned it all in school
A politician´s promise
Can make you feel like a fool
But when they get the power
They´re the first to break the golden rule
We work that 40 acres like riders on a mule
Climb that mountain
Reach the sky
Hangin´ on for a good laugh
For a piece of that American pie
Hey nothin´s easy
Nothin´s for free
In the world of dog eat dog
Oh people, that´s a poor man´s dream
Hey Mr. walton
Lend me a dime
You know I´ll repay ya
But it´s gonna take me some time
I´m standing at the crossroads
Just about to roll the dice
I got a dream in my heart
Whatever it takes
I know I gotta pay the price
We work that 40 acres like riders on a mule
Climb that mountain
Reach the sky
Hangin´ on for a good laugh
For a piece of that American pie
Hey nothin´s easy
Nothin´s for free
In the world of dog eat dog
Oh people, that´s a poor man´s dream
We work that 40 acres like riders on a mule
Climb that mountain
Reach the sky
Hangin´ on for a good laugh
For a piece of that American pie
Hey nothin´s easy
Nothin´s for free
In the world of dog eat dog
Oh people, that´s a poor man´s dream
Hey nothin´s easy
Nothin´s for free
In the world of dog eat dog
Oh people, that´s a poor man´s dream
Oh... It´s a poor man´s dream
Born with a silver spoon
And there ain´t no wise man
Who learned it all in school
A politician´s promise
Can make you feel like a fool
But when they get the power
They´re the first to break the golden rule
We work that 40 acres like riders on a mule
Climb that mountain
Reach the sky
Hangin´ on for a good laugh
For a piece of that American pie
Hey nothin´s easy
Nothin´s for free
In the world of dog eat dog
Oh people, that´s a poor man´s dream
Hey Mr. walton

You know I´ll repay ya
But it´s gonna take me some time

We work that 40 acres like riders on a mule

Oh... It´s a poor man´s dream
