Just discovered Pokey. I aint going anywhere, staying right here. I'm an instant fan!

[jeremycary]

My 19yr old son discovered Pokey and brought his music to me. Proud Dad here that my son gets and appreciates great music.

[powerofpaper]

All this time I only had "Tom waits" for these types of songs, but now I have "Pokey Lafarge " too.

[mojo]

Thank God people are still writing songs like this. Sinatra was great, this guy is awesome. Way to go Pokey

[youdeservethis]

If I had a heart, this song would melt it.

[beckmitful]

A beautiful way to say "i love you, thank you for seeing my potential".

[hescher]

Man, this guy is something else I tell you what.
He is not shy or afraid to do it his way. The way of old. A good way.
The right way.

I think this will be the next great wedding song. Absolutely took my breath away!!!

[matthewrichardson]

This song rings so true. The video confirms all of us when we burst our hearts in that perfect moment and would never dial it back. Pokey, thanks. That diner breakfast the morning after sometimes is the eyes of your future wife over a coffee cup

[bigfredbennett]

The woman in the video, Esther Rose is a great musician too, worth taking a listen to.

[tenminuteretreat]

Absolutely beautiful. Pokey, I know you can't satisfy everyone, especially with your type of music. But your music means the world to some people, including me. Hope that helps. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart.

[donhoffman]

Tremendous talent in Pokey and his band. I have yet to find a song by him that I don't enjoy.... And the gal in this video is absolutely home grown pretty ! Not caked on make up, just naturally beautiful....

[chrismartin]

I had no idea a song was going to hit me so hard in the feels BRILLIANT!

[axldemocracy]

Beautiful song and video. Can't wait to hear the new album. Thank you, Pokey.

[Upsideround]

This is the song every down trodden man needs.

[gordon]

There are lot of beautiful songs about love i love...but this one touch my french heart in Paris...city of love....i hear it when i walk in the old street looking all these people who are in love....and it's make my day...!!!

Waiting tables, at the burger stead,
you were sitting alone
i came up for your order and asked you what you want
you said, do you really wanna know ?

Just got in town i didn’t have a friend
i didn’t even have a car
down at the 3 clubs, i wrote you a poem
and you bought the drinks at the bar

Oh, then, you fell in love, with me,
YES you did !
You took me to A from Z
Yes you did !
It was something you could see
i was broken, i was poor, then said I could be yours
Though i don’t have a dime
Even bums, get lucky sometimes

I’ve never been a hero
I can’t pretend to have a plan
I just want to be a regular guy
Does that mean i could be your man ?

Not strong or fast wasn’t good in school
Yes when I sing I’m flat or sharp
mmmmh Then you took your aim at me
And you shot your arrow through my heart

Oh when you Fell in love with me
Yes you did !
You took me to a from z
Yes you did !
There was something you could see
Oh I found my key
We’re in perfectly harmony
With every verse and rhyme
Even bums get lucky sometimes

Well I don’t deserve nothing
But sometimes you get something yeah
Just for hanging around
Even bums get lucky sometimes

[mommastepnee]

My husband says this is the song stuck in his head constantly. We met he didn't have a car, I was broken and poor.... It's perfect, he just got out of the Navy and moved here with antifriends....

[kanakahuhu]

I donʻt know how I got here and yes I was lost but now I am found. In less than 5 minuteʻs time I fell into this backstory of the video and I fell love in love with the moment.

[nfantone]

This. It's pretty darn close to be one of my instant favourite tunes of all times. A little trip to heaven. Brilliant, raw stuff.
