[Verse 1]
You're a [D]white
collar boy and you gave into the law
Give [G]in [D]to the pressure the
[Em]cops [D]gonna getcha
You were a thieving dog at work until
they caught your little paw
Your [G]wage [D]won't stretch,
to pick[Dm]ing u[D]p [Em]checks[A]
A custodial sentence you
nar[D]rowly avoided
Com[B]munity service you [Em]had
to [D]go along with
You're [A]banging the rocks at
the old city [D]docks[C]
Poor [G]boy [Em]poor [A]bo[D]y[C]
[Em]poor boy [A]poor boy

[Verse 2]
You were [D]chained to a girl that
would kill you with a look
It's a [G]nice [D]way to die she's
so [Em]easy on [D]the eye
She said let's get away,
but you played it by the book
You're a [G]warden's [D]pet,
she's [F]a screaming [A]suf[Em]fra g[A]ette
'We ain't in prison,
we'll just [D]finish up and go home'
[B]She said, 'Not for me,
I've got [Em]plans for later on'
[D]So she [A]belted the sarge and
she jumped on [D]a barge
You [C]fell, [Bm]you [A]fell[D] you[C] fell yo[Bm]u fell[A]

[G]White collar, got dir[F]t in your pants
You got [C]egg in your hair
You got [Eb]spit in your chin

Blue Collar, she's [F]open[C]ing doors
[G]White collar boy[F], on the[C] run from the law
