Verse 1:

      D
I'm a poorman's son,
                C/D 
From across the railroad tracks,
    D
The only shirt I own,
   C/D
Is hangin' on my back.
    D                     C/D
But I'm the envy of every single guy,
      D                C/D
Since I'm the apple of my girl's eye.

     D
When we go out stepping,
       C/D
On the town for a while,
   D
My money's low and,
   C/D
My suit's out of style,

Bridge 1:

         D
But it's all right;
      C/D
If my clothes aren't new,
D
 Out of sight;
          C/D
Because my heart is true.

Verse 2:

        D
She's a pearl of a girl,
               C/D
I guess that's what you might say,
  D
I guess her folks,
             C/D
Brought her up that way.

    D
The right side of the tracks,
        C/D
She was born and raised,
     D
In a great big old house,
        C/D
Full of butlers and maids.

Bridge 2:

D
 No one;
    C/D
Is better than I,
D
 I know;
            C/D
I'm just an average guy.

Verse 3:

   D
No football hero,
    C/D
Or smooth Don Juan,
    D
Got empty pockets, you see;
      C/D
I'm a poorman's son.

      D
Can't give her the things,
     C/D
That money can buy,
         D
But I'll never, never,
        C/D
Make my baby cry,

Bridge 3:

         D
And it's all right;
     C/D
What I can't do,

 Out of sight;
           C/D
Because my heart is true,
