When I was a little baby, My momma said, "Hey son
Travel where you will and grow to be a man
And sing what must be sung, Poor Boy,
Sing what must be sung."

Now that I'm a grown man, I've traveled here and there.
I've learned that a bottle of brandy and a song
The only ones who ever cared, Poor Boy, 
The only ones who ever cared.
