Israelites
Poor me Israelites
I get up in the mornin', slaving for bread, sir
So that every mouth can be fed
Poor me Israelites
My wife an' the kids, them a pack up an' a leave me
Darling, she said, I was yours to be seen
Poor me Israelites
My shirt them a-tear up, trousers are gone
I don't want to end up like Bonnie and Clyde
Poor me Israelites
After a storm, there must be a calm
They catch me in your farm, you sound your alarm
Poor me Israelites
I get up in the mornin', slaving for bread, sir
So that every mouth can be fed
Poor me Israelites
Look, my wife an' the kids, them a pack up an' a leave me
Darling, she said, I was yours to be seen
Poor me Israelite
My shirt them a-tear up, trousers are gone
I don't want to end up like Bonnie and Clyde
Poor me, the Israelite
Now, after a storm, there must be a calm
Catch me in your farm, you sound your alarm
Poor me Israelite
My wife an' the kids, them a pack up an' a leave me
