Jon Bon Jovi
Rich Man Living In A Poor Man’s House
[Verse 1]
Billy works too hard
Tryna make ends meet
He's gotta pay his credit cards
Yeah, he's been dealin' with the odds that even Vegas can't beat
Doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo

[Verse 2]
By six, he's out of bed
She makes his coffee sweet
He grabs his boots and his coat
Leaves a note that says, "I love you"
And runs to catch a bus down at the end of Market Street

[Chorus]
It took some time to figure it out
He's a rich man livin' in a poor man's house
He might be down, but he ain't out
He's a rich man livin' in a poor man's house

[Verse 3]
Every night at home
Feels like it's Christmas Eve
Gracie's got his dinner on the stove, Daddy's comin' home
And they got seven hungry children that are tuggin' on his sleeve
[Chorus]
It took some time to figure it out
He's a rich man livin' in a poor man's house
He might be down, but he ain't out
He's a rich man livin' in a poor man's house
Every night at five, when work lets out
He's a rich man livin' in a poor man's house

[Bridge]
He arrives at nine as the work bell's ringin'
To face the grind but his heart is singin'
Yeah

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 4]
Some men live for money
Some men live for work
But it's a real man, richer man who knows what love's worth

[Chorus]
It took some time to figure it out
He's a rich man livin' in a poor man's house
He might be down, but he ain't out
He's a rich man livin' in a poor man's house
Every night at five, when work lets out
He's a rich man livin' in a poor man's house
[Outro]
Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
A rich man livin' in a poor man's house
A rich man livin' in a poor man's house
A rich man livin' in a poor man's house
Rich man livin' in a poor man's house
Rich man livin' in a poor man's house
Uh-huh
Oh yeah
Uh-huh-huh
Yeah, yeah, yeah, uh-huh
Uh, oh yeah
Uh-huh
Hey
