Chicken Soup

Standin' there, by the old town clock. With my coat in my hand, I thought I'd go for a walk Like my Momma said: "You'll never be poor", But can you really be sure You've got to help, doctor doctor, got to take the cure. Strollin' round, I was hit by surprise, By a bit of a dream, That looked me straight in the eyes. My Momma said: "You'll never be poor", But can you really be sure? You've got to help, doctor doctor, got to take the cure. Everyday, I think I see her again, With the pa*sing of time, My chances just never came. Like my Momma said: "You'll never be poor", But can you really be sure? You've got to help, doctor doctor, got to take the cure. Fourteen years, since I saw her that night, Things are not quite the same, My head just ain't feelin' right. My Momma said: "You'll never be poor", But can you really be sure? You've gotta to help, doctor doctor, got to take the cure. Oh you're right that I tried, To tell myself that I'll be all right. Feelin' poor, that's for sure, I need a bowl of my Momma's cure. Oh you're right that I tried, To tell myself that I'll be all right, Feelin' poor, that's for sure, I need a bowl of my Momma's cure.
