Who sang these lyrics please. it should be a 70's or 80 disco song by a woman:

rich man, poor man begger man thief, my baby changes like the weather
tinker (or drinker) tailor soldier spy, I wouldn't look at another
black hair, brown hair young or old, he's my rain and sunshine
whether he's good or whether he's bad...
he's a.........
he's mine.....

that's about all I remember but love the song and never forgotten these words for 20+ years. Sounds like something Donna Summer would have done but can;t find it in her repertoire.

There's a song by Jethro Tull that has those lyrics at the begginning of his song = "rich man, poor, beggar thief" but the rest of the lyrics don't match that song though.



There is another song which is a long shot by a group called The Gladiators. That song was called "Rich Man Poor Man" Sorry if any of these aren't it but it's all I can think of at the moment.
