Lyrics
That's Rich
Donovan Tucker (c) 2017 BMI
I was a pauper I couldn't spare a spare a dime
But That didn't stop her
From lending me her time
I know it won't be long till I'm exposed
My Sunday best comes from the Goodwill store Already pressed, that's all I can afford
But I clean up real good or so I'm told.
Chorus
That's rich that she loves me
A humble man of modest means
When she's been blessed
With beauty , grace and style
Yeah that's rich If she loves me
How lucky can a poor boy be
I do my best to keep her with a smile
Verse
She's like the b side of a forty-five You just can't wait to play the other side
But I hold my cards real close to the vest
We watched the creature From the the black lagoon
The second feature couldn't start too soon
The suspense is killing me hope I'm up to her test
Chorus
That's rich that she loves me
A humble man of modest means
When she's been blessed
With beauty , grace and style (bass walk up)
Hey that's rich I'f she loves me
Cause I'm working class she's royalty
I do my best to keep her with a smile. (solo)
Chorus
That's rich that she loves me
A humble man of modest means
When she's been blessed
beauty , grace and style
Hey that's rich if she loves me
How lucky can a (break)...poor boy ......be
