Well, the doctor comes around with his face all bright
And he says, “In a little while you’ll be all right!”
Well, all he gives is a humbug pill
Dose of dope and a great big bill
Tell me, how can a poor man stand such times and live?

There once was a time when everything was cheap
But now prices nearly puts a man to sleep
When we get our grocery bill
We just feel like making our will
Tell me, how can a poor man stand such times and live ?


Well I remember when dry goods was cheap as dirt
You could take two bits and buy a dandy shirt
Now we pay three bucks or more
Maybe get a shirt that another man wore
Tell me, how can a poor man stand such times and live?

Most preachers well they preach for gold and not for soul
Well, that’s what keeps us poor folks always in a hole
Now, we can hardly get our breath
Taxed and schooled and preached to death
Tell me, how can a poor man stand such times and live?
Tell me, how can a poor man stand such times and live?
