The Rich Life of a Poor Man

If you got the time I got a story to tell

Of how I lost my money in a wishing well

And I know it's all just a distant memory

But I hope that you'll remember me

I wanted out through the hard times

Felt every doubt more than one time

And I'll sit it out, watch the world pass from the sidelines

Hoping I'm not just a punchline in a joke I didn't get

But I would never let it go down that way

'Cause at the end of the day

If you got the time I got a story to tell

Of how I lost my money in a wishing well

And I know it's all just a distant memory

But I hope that you'll remember me

Summertime but I fall in feeling

Loose change spent on hopeless dreaming

I know it's a distant memory

But I hope that you'll remember me

I've broken down ten miles away

I've seen the sun, I've burned my face

It's not that clever

I'm throwing coins into the blue

Wishful thinking coming to

So look around, take in the view

It's getting better

Because I never let it go down that way

And at the end of the day

If you got the time I got a story to tell

Of how I lost my money in a wishing well

And I know it's all just a distant memory

But I hope that you'll remember me

Summertime but I fall in feeling

Loose change spent on hopeless dreaming

I know it's a distant memory

But I hope that you'll remember me

I wanted out

'Cause I saw disaster

I watched it break when it bent

I wanted out

'Cause I saw disaster

I watched it break when it bent

It's all a means to an end

A means to end

If you got the time I got a story to tell

Of how I lost my money in a wishing well

And I know it's all just a distant memory

But I hope that you'll remember me

Summertime but I fall in feeling

Loose change spent on hopeless dreaming

I know it's a distant memory

But I hope that you'll remember me

Summertime but I fall in feeling

You'll remember me

Summertime but I fall in feeling

But I hope that you'll remember me
