Letra de A Poor Boy's Melody

I recall that in the fall I left my hometown
Looking for some other place to go
And I didn't know it then but my life on earth would end alone
On the cities street with a poor boys melody
Well I cursed the day you left me in the cold
I found you lying facedown in the snow
With a little on my back, I headed down a oneway track
Why you left me darling I'll never know
I curse the day I left the mountains
What bitters winds have brought me here
I curse thesе city streets, and how I long to leave them
Dig mysеlf from this no place, and take the high road out of town
All alone, and on the streets
Got the bug of a poor boy's melody
I'd sing it from the heart, and I'd play the fiddle part
But no one ever even turned their eyes to me
Well I curse the day the bottle killed my sorrows
And took away the need to see tomorrow
People passing by while they didn't stop to see
What a broken man the world had made of me
I curse the day I left the mountains
What bitters winds have brought me here
I curse these city streets, and how I long to leave them
Dig myself out from this low place, and take the high road out of town
Sometimes I pray that I will just pass on
To another land, to sing another land
Where man that's down and out there's nothing left to see
On city streets with a poor boy's melody
I curse the day I left the mountains
What bitters winds have brought me here
I curse these city streets, and how I long to leave them
Dig myself from this no place, and take the high road out of town
And take the high road out of town
And take the high road out of town
