They say that Richard Cory
Owns one-half of this here
town
With political connections
Spread his wealth
around

Born into society, a banker's only
child
He had everything a man could want
Power, grace
and style

But I, work in his factory
And I curse
the life I'm livin'
And I curse my poverty/>That I wish that I could be
Yeah, I wish that I could
be
Lord, I wish that I could be, Richard Cory
/>Paper's print his pictures
Almost everywhere he
go
Richard Cory at the opera
Richard Cory at the
show

And the rumours of his a-parties
And the
orgies on his yacht
Well, he surely must be happy
With
everythang that he has got

But I, work in his
factory
And I curse the life I'm livin'
And
I curse my poverty
And I wish that I could be
I wish
that I could be, yea-ah
I wish that I could be, Richard
Cory

He freely gave to charity
And had that
common touch
They were grateful for his patronage
And
thanked him very much

So my mind was filled with
wonder
When the evenin' headlines read
That
Richard Cory went home last night
And put a bullet through
his head, hu

But I, I, I, work in his factory/>And I, I don't don't dig the life I'm
livin'
And I don't dig my poverty
And I wish
that I could be
Yeah, an' I wish that I could be/>Well, wish that I could be, Richard Cory

Ay-hey, I
wish that I could be
I wish that I could be
Sometime,
I wish that I could be
A-just like a-Richard Cory
Just
li-iiiiiiike, a-Richard Cory
A-Richard Cory
FADES/>A-Richard Cory
Just like Richard Cory
