Matthew Good Band - Poor Man's Grey lyrics

From Chicago to Miami

Shout New York, shout LA

Today we take the White House

And paint it poor man's gray

From London to Damascus

Cry Freetown in Marseilles

Today we take the blue sky

And paint it poor man's gray

My mama she done told me

There's heart and then there's hate

If one of them is inside of you

The other one it ain't

From the alleys on the East side

Where the train it throws the weight

Brother take that cheeky smile

And paint it poor man's gray

From Berlin to Havana

From Beijing to Bombay

Today we take the blue sky

And paint it poor man's gray
