I haven't much to offer

But my future looks bright

I do what I do well

I'll always get by

And I don't even have the right to ask you

But I've been loving you so long

Could you love a poor boy?

Could you, Dolly?

Could you love a poor boy?

If you come live with me

Dolly, I'd be so proud

Could you love a poor boy?

Could you, Dolly?

Could you love a poor boy?

If I gave you this ring

Would you wear it on your finger at night?

I haven't got a mansion

But I got a piece of lane

And I'll build a home for you

With these hard-working hands

And I'd love you like there was no tomorrow

Every day of my life

Could you love a poor boy?

Could you, Dolly?

Could you love a poor boy? (Poor boy)

If you come live with me

Dolly, I'd be so proud

Could you love a poor boy?

Could you, Dolly?

Could you love a poor boy? (Poor boy)

If I gave you this ring

Would you wear it on your finger at night?

Could you love a poor boy?

Could you, Dolly?

Could you love a poor boy? (Poor boy)

If you come live with me

Dolly, I'd be so proud

Could you love a poor boy?

Could you, Dolly?

Could you love a poor boy? (Poor boy)

If I gave you this ring

Would you wear it on your finger at night?
