Lyrics
The Almoner
I am a poor man by and by
But my love casts no judging eye
I make my living in charity,
I am an almoner, you see
Her mama she don't like me none
And never will call me her son
Her papa knows that I mean well
But all he says is buy and sell
Her brother he won't shake my hand
He doesn't think I am a man
Her sister well she's on my side
She thinks I am benefited
I am a poor man by and by
But my love casts no judging eye
I make my living in charity,
I am an almoner, you see
