Poor Boy Lookin for a Home Songtext
von Glen Campbell

Well-a old Mister fox done found him a home
Down in the ground so deep
Well, the fox got a place to call his own
He got a place to sleep

Old Mister coon got a real fine home
High in the hollow tree
Well the coon′s got a place he can call his own
But there ain't no place for me

I′m just a poor boy lookin' for a home
Lookin' for a place to call my own
Poor boy lookin′ for a home
Poor boy lookin′ for a home

Well the boll weevil find him a cotton boll
He move all his kin folk in
He found a place that is mighty snug
Down by the cotton gin


Well the bee's got a home in the honey hive
Honey in the honey comb
Well, old Mister bee′s gotta keep alive
While the poor boy's lookin′ for a home

I'm just a poor boy lookin′ for a home
Lookin' for a place to call my own
Poor boy lookin' for a home
Poor boy lookin′ for a home

Oh the catfish home is a muddy pond
He just eat and swim
Well, he don′t cry when the crawdad's gone
Tadpole′s fine with him

Crow's found a nest in a tree top tall
He never pay no rent
Well the poor boy′s got him no home at all
He ain't got a livin′ cent

I'm just a poor boy lookin' for a home
Lookin′ for a place to call my own
Poor boy lookin′ for a home
Poor boy lookin' for a home
