growing up poor doesn't always mean not happy & content with what you have.

Story behind the song
Family bonds are stronger than riches.
Lyrics
momma' had nothin'
daddy didn't have much more
cardboard soles in worn out shoes
9 to 5 grind
tattered clothes hangin' on the line
that's when i found out about the blues
and the neighbors next door , in 204 looked so refined
until i realized they were only legends in their own minds!
YOU CAN STRIKE IT RICH, YOU CAN STRIKE IT POOR
momma' had nothin'
daddy didn't have much more
but they gave somethin' money can't buy ( that's no lie)
as far as i've seen yeah
the best times will ever be
growin' up rich with my poor family
