[N] [Bbm]
[Bb] [Bbm]
I'm going to sing a song called,
I'm going to sing a song called, It's called,
And [Db] I'll never get arrested
[Ab] sitting on a poor [Bbm] man's throne
Well, I'd like to see my baby
I'd like to take her [Eb] to a jewelry [Bbm] store
But looking through a window
only makes a fellow hate life more
It's a savage night and busy but I never felt so all alone
And [Db] I'll never get arrested [Ab] sitting on a poor man's [Bbm] throne
[Db] And I'll never get arrested [Ab] sitting on a poor [Bbm] man's throne
All alone
[Ab] [Bbm]
[Db] [Ab]
[Bbm]
Oh, I've just been thinking how long I had to pay my dues
If I only had [Ebm] a dollar every time I had to [Bbm] sing the blues
But singing for my supper is the only life I've ever known
And I'll [Db] never get arrested [Ab] sitting on a poor man's [Bbm] throne
And [Db] I'll never get arrested [Ab] sitting on a poor man's [Bbm] throne
Baby
[Db]
[Bbm] Oh, baby
You don't know
Oh, how hard it is
Trying to get ahead up here
[Eb] It's kinda hard, you know
You'll never get to nothing
Sitting that way now
Oh
Whoa, whoa
Somebody
Oh, I'm lying
