You walk in, half past nine Lookin like a queen Serving me with papers Calling me obscene Woman I've tried so hard Just to do my best They're gonna put me in the poor house And you'll take all the rest
Up all day, down all night Working on the job Everything I do is wrong I always end up [..] Woman I try so hard Done all I can do. They're gonna put me in the poor house Keep all the best for you.
Ooh, in the poor house Ooh, in the poor house
If a drove a pulpwood truck Would you love me more? Will you bring me diamonds And hang around my door Woman, I've done my best They're ain't much left for me They're gonna put me in the poor house And throw away the key (in the poor house)
Ooh, in the poor house
You walked in, half past nine Lookin like a queen Serving me with papers Calling me obscene Woman I've tried so hard Just to do my best They're gonna put me in the poor house And you'll take all the rest
In the poor house Ooh, in the poor house In the poor house Ooh, in the poor house
