Bon Jovi Rich man living in a poor man' Lyrics

Billy works too hard, trying to make ends meet
He's gotta pay his credit cards, yeah he's been dealing with the odds that even Vegas can't beat
By six he's out of bed, she makes his coffee sweet
He grabs his boots & his coat, leaves a note that says I Love You
And runs to catch a bus down at the end of Market Street

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

Every night at home, feels like it's Christmas Eve
Gracie's got his dinner on the stove, Daddy's coming home
And they've got seven hungry children that are tugging on his sleeve

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

Every night at five when work lets out
He's a rich man living in a poor man's house

He arrives at 9 as the work bell's ringing
Hits the grind but his heart is singing

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

It took some time to figure it out
He's a rich man living in a poor man's house
He might be down, but he ain't out
He's a rich man living in a poor man's house
Every night at five when work lets out
He's a rich man living in a poor man's house
A rich man living in a poor man's house
A rich man living in a poor man's house
A rich man living in a poor man's house
A rich man living in a poor man's house

Rico Viviendo en Casa de un Pobre

Billy trabaja demasiado, intentando llegar a fin de mes
tiene que pagar las tarjetas de credito, maneja probabilidades que ni en Las Vegas superarian
A eso de las 6 se levanta, ella le hace el café dulce
coge su abrigo y las botas, deja una nota diciendo "te quiero"
y corre para coger el autobus al final de la calle Market
Le llevó tiempo darse cuenta
es un rico viviendo en la casa de un pobre
estaba pelado pero no del todo **
es un rico viviendo en la casa de un pobre
Cada noche en casa es como Noche Buena
Gracie tiene la cena en el horno, papa vuelve a casa
y tiene 7 hijos hambrientos tirándole de la manga
Estribillo
Cada tarde a las 5 cuando acaba el trabajo
es un rico viviendo en la casa d eun pobre
llega a las 9 cuando suena la campana
está molido pero su corazon canta
hay hombres que viven por el dinero
hay hombres que viven para trabajar
pero un hombre autentico,uno rico sabe lo que vale el amor
Estribillo

**juego de palabras, "to be down and out" es estar en la miseria.
