Odetta Holmes - Rich Man Blues

Tekst piosenki:

I wanna rich man, all you poor men have got to go!
Yes, I wanna rich man, all you poor men have got to go!
I want my breakfast in bed, and a butler to open my door.

He must have everything I need, plus that good old jelly roll!
Yes, he must have everything I need, plus that good old jelly roll!
He's got to have furs and diamond rings to satisfy my soul.

I want to travel abroad, see Cuba and Spain,
Don't want to go in a car, but on jet-propelled plane!
That's why he's gotta be rich, all you poor men have got to go,
Must have everything I want, yes that includes his gold!

Girls, if you've got a rich man, you'd better chain him to your side,
Yes, if you've got a rich man, you'd better chain him to your side,
'Cause if he ever flags this train, I'm sure going to let him ride!
