Pete Seeger - Poor Boy lyrics

[Pete Seeger - Poor Boy lyrics]

Who's gonna shoe your pretty little foot?
Who's gonna glove your hand?
Who's gonna kiss your red ruby lips?
Who's gonna be your man?

Papa will shoe my pretty little foot
Mama'll glove my hand
Sister's gonna kiss my red ruby lips
I don't need no man

I don't need no man, poor boy
I don't need no man
Sister's gonna kiss my red ruby lips
I don't need no man
Longest train I ever did see
Was sixteen coaches long
The only girl I ever did love
Was on that train and gone

Was on that train and gone, poor boy
Was on that train and gone
The only girl I ever did love
Was on that train and gone
