Hes a poor boy in his pocket
Hes a poor boy in his shoes.
Hes done his time
Hes stood in line
That boy has paid his dues.
He aint looking for a handout
Hes just looking for a start
He dont hate anyone
He dont carry a gun
You can tell that kid is smart.
So you can
T keep that poor boy down
You can be unkind
You can rob him blind
But you cant keep that poor boy down.
You can lie and cheat
You can chain his feet
But you cant keep that poor boy down.
And all down throughout the ages
The kids been treated rough
Just take a look
In any history book
You can see that times were tough.
Now we move up to the nineties
Up to the 21st
One day hell stand
A full grown man
And be the same as all of us.
So you cant keep that poor boy down
You can lock him up
You can break his cup
But you cant keep that poor boy down.
You can fight and steal
You can drag your heels
But you cant keep that poor boy down
You can kick his ass
If the kids got class
You cant keep that poor boy down.
Lets stop the truck
Go back and pick him up
You cant keep that poor boy down.
Let him go!!
