Lord Must Have Loved The Poor Folks lyrics

My daddy was nothing but a dirt farmer And I don't remember a penny he ever saved Aål he ever have was a farm and it was bare A bent back and an early grey But the Lord must have loved the poor folks who worked from daylight till dusk The Lord must have loved the poor folks he made so many of us [ guitar ] For fifteen years my man worked a railroad Fifteen years and he never missed a day All he ever got was an old gold watch a freepass and too little pay But the Lord must have loved the poor folks... He made so many of us
