Poet, Pauper, Or King (C)J.Birch 1998.
She works at the market behind the checkout
There's something about it that gives her a buzz
The boss says she will go far
Now the boys in the isles drive her home in their car
She didn't think she was pretty
Until she heard this little ditty
It's a song for the workers who try really hard
To do their jobs well to do
their jobs well
To do their jobs well
He is a young man he plays for the school
There's something about it that gives him a buzz
The team says he will go far
Now the boys on the sidelines strive to be stars
He didn't think he was pretty
Until he heard this little ditty
It's a song for the workers who try really hard
To do their jobs well to do
their jobs well
To do their jobs well
He sits and stares at the wall
Talking to no one , no one at all
Try , try ,try , & try
Cry , cry ,cry , & cry
He worked on this song all of the night
There's something about it that gives him a rush
He found the perfect rhyme
It gave him such a peaceful easy state of mind
Whether you’re a poet a pauper or a king
Doing a job well is a wonderful thing
She works at the market behind the checkout
There's something about it that gives her a buzz
The boss says she will go far
Now the boys in the isles drive her home in their car
He didn't think she was pretty
Until he heard this little ditty
It's a song for the workers who try really hard
To do their jobs well to do
their jobs well
To do their jobs well
Whether you’re a poet a pauper or a king
Whether you’re a poet a pauper or a king
Whether you’re a poet a pauper or a king
Doing a job well is a wonderful thing
