Poor Jody, standin' on the same old corner,
It don't seem like the same old town.
You dreamed of the good life
Where a man could walk alone,
Walked out on a good wife
Oh it's too late, she's gone.
Poor Jody, leanin' on the same old lamp post
Watchin' the buses goin' up town
Me and the neighborhood are feeling rundown
Poor Jody... Don't seem like the same old town.

You're the last of the old gang, the last hanger-on.
The years seem to fly by, oh, where have they gone
Poor Jody, leanin' on the same old lamp post
Watchin' the buses goin' up town
Me and the neighborhood are feeling rundown
Poor Jody... Don't seem like the same old town...
Poor Jody poor Jody poor Jody poor Jody
