★Baby, everything is alright
Up tight (and clean) out of sight
Baby, everything is alright
Up tight (and clean) out of sight

A poor man's son
From across the railroad track
Only shirt I own
Is hangin' on my back
But I'm the envy of every single guy
'Cause I'm the apple of my girl's eye
When we go out steppin'

On the town for a While
Money's low and my suit's out of style
But it's alright if my clothes aren't new
Out of sight because my heart is true
She says

(★Repeat)

She's pearl of a girl
I guess that's what you might say
I guess her folks
Brought her up that way
The right side of the tracks
She was born and raised
In a great big old house
Full of butlers and maids
She says no one is better than I
I know I'm just an average guy
No football hero or smoothe Don Juan
Got empty pockets, you see
I'm a poor man's son
Can't give her the things
That money can buy
But I never never never
Make my baby cry
And it's all right what I can't do
Out of sight because my heart it true
She says

(★Repeat and fade)
