From the recording Bellatopia
Lyrics
He likes to keep himself busy
Tries to bring home the bread
he's gotta pretty wife Izzy
he's got a dream in his head
He walks to church on Sunday
With her hand in his hand
He likes to hear what the preacher says 'cause
He knows he understands yeah
He's just poor man
He's got dirt on his face but a rock steady hand
He's just a poor man
But he's got grace in his heart
And he knows where he stands
And he knows
He knows
He knows
He's gotta keep it together
'Cause life's a pretty big beast
He's got the kids and the mortgage too and
The problem boy down the street
And on the porch come sundown
Plays guitar drinks a beer
Looks out over the neighborhood and says
Yeah I know why I'm here yeah
He's just a poor man
He's got dirt on his face but a rock steady hand
He's just a poor man
But he's got grace in his heart and he knows where he stands
He knows
He knows
He knows that it's a crazy world outside
There's nothing here to hide
So come on here inside
Yeah
He's just a poor man
He's got dirt on his face but a rock steady hand
He's just a poor man
But he's got grace in his heart and he knows where he stands
He's just a poor man
He's got dirt on his face but a rock steady hand
He's just a poor man
But he's got grace in his heart and he knows where he stands
And he knows
He knows
He knows
He knows
He knows
