baby if you really love me
you had better understand
that the silver in your pocket
ain’t no measure of a man
and though the fortunes of our fathers
we aspire to rise above
when you’re born into a breed
you’re signed in blood
i’m a poor mans son
workin’ all night long
got a bad
and a simple song
you’re a rich mans daughter
look at what you’ve done
you went and fell in love
with a poor mans son
baby you were born in splendor
to a house of wealth and fame
your mother was a spender
and you grew up on a stage
and girl you coulda loved for money
coulda fooled around for fame
you went and took a chance
on the real thing
repeat
