Poor Man’s Anthem Lyrics by Brendan Walter

I don’t know what I’m doing yet

2023

[Verse 1]
"You're just not the right kind", she says
But you knew that
Kind of broke but retched heart
But you knew that
I need a roof above my head, boy
Can you do that?
One day I want some mouths to feed
So break your back
[Chorus]
I know that I'm not perfect
Just please be kind to me
'Cause my money won't be worth it
If I can't call you mine for free
Sleep is for the weak
Tears are for the poor
And I've got no more
I've got no more
[Verse 2]
Love's a tough game to play
At least I've been told
And just like wine it takes time
To be worth its wеight in gold
I love your head and so my darling
Through sickness and no wеalth
If that ain't good enough for you
Go find someone else
[Chorus]
I know that I'm not perfect
Just please be kind to me
'Cause my money won't be worth it
If I can't call you mine for free
Sleep is for the weak
Tears are for the poor
And I've got no more
I've got no more
[Bridge]
But don't slow me down 'cause I'm on way
This old beat up car has a path to pave
Oh, the blood, the sweat, the tears in my way
I put this poor man's name [?]
[Outro]
Oh, ohhh
Ohhhh
Ohh, ohhh
Sleep is for the weak
Tears are for the poor
I've got no more
I've got no more
