Poor People

Poor people are poor people
And they don't understand
A man's got to make whatever he wants
And take it with his own hands

Poor people stay poor people
And they never get to see
Someone's got to win in the human race
If it isn't you, then it has to be me

So smile while you're makin' it
Laugh while you're takin' it
Even though you're fakin' it
Nobody's gonna know
Nobody's gonna know

It's no use mumbling
It's no use grumbling
Life just isn't fair
There's no easy days
There's no easy ways
Just get out there and do it!

And sing and they'll sing your song
Laugh while you're getting on
Smile and they'll string along
And nobody's gonna know
Nobody's gonna know
Nobody's gonna know
And nobody's gonna know
