"THE POOR SIDE OF TOWN.."
SUNG BY JOHNNY RIVERS
"I'D TRADE ALL OF MY MATERIAL THINGS..FOR A LIFETIME OF LOVE WITH YOU"
FROM THE PRIVATE POETRY COLLECTION OF SUSAN JANE KAHON
I'D TRADE ALL OF MY MATERIAL THINGS
FOR A LIFETIME OF LOVE WITH YOU..
I'D GIVE  ALL THAT I HAVE IN THIS WORLD AWAY
FOR A CHANCE TO HAVE MY DREAMS COME TRUE..


DON'T NEED ALL THOSE FANCY THINGS
I DON'T NEED A LOT OF MONEY..
IT'S JUST A GAME THAT PEOPLE PLAY
I JUST WANT YOU FOR MY HONEY


MATTER OF FACT, I'D LIVE IN A TENT
OR A CABIN RIGHT NEXT TO THE LAKE
JUST TO LIE IN YOUR ARMS
AND HOLD YOU CLOSE
ALL EARTHLY GOODS I'D FORSAKE


ALL THESE CLOTHES AND FANCY CARS
THEY DON''T MEAN ANYTHING TO ME
IF I CAN'T SEE THE LOVELIGHT IN YOUR EYES
AND FEEL A SENSE OF YOUR WARM MYSTERY
HONEY, I'D GO WITHOUT CLOTHES ON MY BACK
AND SIT ON A CARDBOARD CHAIR
IF I COULD ALWAYS HOLD YOU AND TOUCH YOU..I'D LIVE WITH YOU ANYWHERE..


SO IF YOU SAY YOU'RE POOR
IT DOESN'T MATTER AT ALL..
FOR WE'RE BOTH RICH IN LOVE
HOW COULD WE POSSIBLY FALL...?


I DON'T NEED A MILLIONAIRE
OUR LOVE MEANS MORE THAN DOLLARS AND CENTS..
SO COME TO ME ..DARLING AND STAY WITH ME
TRUE LOVE HAS REALLY NO EXPENSE


I'D TRADE ALL OF MY MATERIAL THINGS
FOR A LIFETIME OF LOVE WITH YOU
I'D GIVE ALL THAT I HAVE IN THIS WORLD AWAY
FOR A CHANCE TO HAVE MY DREAMS COME TRUE
