Poor Folks Town

(Dolly Parton)



The work is hard and the hours are long

The money ain't much but we get along

We're rich in things that life can give

That can't be bought with a dollar bill.



Come on down have a look around

At rich folks living in a poor folks town

We got no money but we're rich in love

That's one thing that we've got a plenty of

So come on down have a look around

At rich folks living in a poor folks town.

We got no carpets on the floor

We've got wall to wall love who could ask for more

We got no fancy things to show

Just a place to watch our children grow.



We got no big fine car to drive

And no fancy clothes to keep in style

What we've got we're paying on

But it's mostly love that we're living on.



So come on down have a look around

At rich folks living in a poor folks town

We got no money but we're rich in love

That's one thing that we've got a plenty of

So come on down have a look around

At rich folks living in a poor folks town.

We've got a little simple church near by

And the promise of a mansion in the sky

A heart of gold, a million dollar smile

And a one-way ticket to paradise.



So come on down have a look around

At rich folks living in a poor folks town

We got no money but we're rich in love

That's one thing that we've got a plenty of

So come on down have a look around

At rich folks living in a poor folks town.



So come on down have a look around

At rich folks living in a poor folks town

We got no money but we're rich in love

That's one thing that we've got a plenty of

So come on down have a look around

At rich folks living in a poor folks town.



So come on down have a look around

At rich folks living in a poor folks town

We got no money but we're rich in love

That's one thing that we've got a plenty of

So come on down have a look around

At rich folks living in a poor folks town...
