"Po' Folks Christmas Lyrics"
So Good (To Da Dee Remix) Lyrics
[Verse 1 Beyonce:] Uh, yeah - to da Dee, like me! Go down, in style, baby! Baby! Hey how ya doin', yeah I'm doin' mighty fine (Like, wha?) Last time I seen ya, it's been a long time (Long, boy!) Stop smilin' at me, get that look off your face (Pssss)
(Bill Anderson)
There's a whole lotta people lookin' down their noses at me
'Cause I didn't come from a wealthy family
I guess I learned to take it for most of the year
But every December when Christmas drew near
And all the other families were out spreadin' cheer
We was sittin' home being po' folks.
Our Christmas shopping was thumbin' through the new catalog
Lookin' and a wishin' and a wantin' everything we saw
Little toy trains and little toy boats
And sister kept lookin' at the little girl's coats
We all sat down and wrote
But Santa don't come to see po' folks.
And we wadn't nothing but po' folks
Po' folks livin' way in the country
We never heard the jingle of the jingle bells
Ho, ho, ho, we was po, po. po'
And if we had Christmas well we just made it ourselves.
Daddy took a hatchet and daddy chopped a pine tree down
The only decorations were the ones we made or found
Brother saw some holly in the rich man's yard
He picked it up fast and ran home hard
And mama knew he stole it but bless her heart
Christmas ain't easy on po' folks
Repondez-Moi Lyrics
Je vis dans une maison sans balcon, sans toiture O? y a meme pas d'abeilles sur les pots de confiture Y a meme pas d'oiseaux, meme pas la nature C'est meme pas une maison J'ai laiss? en passant quelques mots sur le mur Du couloir qui descend au parking des voitures

Right Next Door (Because of Me) Lyrics
I can hear the couple fighting right next door Their angry words sound clear thru these thin walls Around midnight I heard him shout 'unfaithful woman' And I knew right there the axe was gonna fall It's because of me It's because of me I heard him s

I remember one Christmas it was blowing
And a snowing mean
Wadn't nothing in the kitchen
But a few of mama's homecanned beans
Some ladies from the church brought a basket of food
Mama kinda smiled and she said that's good
But why don't you all just take it to the folks
That live down the road
They ain't got as much as we do, huh
Why they're just po' folks.
She only kept a chicken and enough
To make some homemade bread
But you'd've thought
Dyed in the Wool Lyrics
I lose It's nothin' new to me I fail I do my best but it all rolls downhill I try to make you look when I pass by But nothin' ever works I'm through with the pain Now I'm gonna win And my world won't ever be the same It was wri
we was feastin'I lose It's nothin' new to me I fail I do my best but it all rolls downhill I try to make you look when I pass by But nothin' ever works I'm through with the pain Now I'm gonna win And my world won't ever be the same It was wri
From the blessings that my daddy said
And later when kids was tucked in tight
And the fire wadn't nothin' but a flickering light
You oughta heard my mama sing Silent Night
Cause that's what you do when you're po' folks
And we wadn't nothin' but po' folks.
Christmas time when you're po' folks
The Lord sure must've loved us po' folks ha, ha
He made a passel of us
Everybody at my house was po' folks
Why most of the time we was po'
We couldn't even pay attention, mercy
Christmas time when you're po' folks...
