Rich And The Poor Lyrics

(Ted Daffan - Herman Shoss)

Sometimes I get so lonely and I don't know what to do
Though there's people all around me still I feel so sad and blue
Then I heard your happy laughter as though an angel were to sing
And I knew that I was bankrupt and you were wealthy as a king.

My heart's so cold and lonely that I live in poverty
Your heart's so warm and lovin' you are richer more than meHank Locklin - Rich And The Poor - http://motolyrics.com/hank-locklin/rich-and-the-poor-lyrics.html
Won't you share your precious laughter you're so rich in happiness
Lend your love to one who needs it and your share will not grow less.

--- Instrumental ---

A wealth you have to offer can't be bought with wordly gold
The love that gold can purchase is kinda bit and oh so cold
I am just a beggar pleading for a smile from you
Lend your love to one who needs it, won't you make me wealthy too?...
