From the 1950s, Poe played steadfast film heroes who fight for the common man, which won him respect and admiration. He did not complete high school but went on to win numerous awards and prizes as an actor and film director. During the latter part of his career, he ran an unsuccessful bid for President of the Philippines in the 2004 presidential election against the former president Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo.
In 2011, witnesses revealed in a Senate inquiry that Poe would have won the 2004 elections had there been no cheating.
He was honored on May 24, 2006 as Philippine National Artist through Philippine Proclamation No. 1065.
Poe dropped out of high school to work in the Filipino film industry as a messenger boy, and was given acting roles in subsequent years. Starting as a stuntman for Everlasting Pictures, he was given a break and landed his first starring role in the movie Anak ni Palaris (Son of Palaris) at the age of 14. The movie was not a big hit. In 1957, the movie Lo Waist Gang made him popular, and the film was such a big hit that low-waist pants became a fad.

Oh, no, I got that funky feeling
I just slipped out of a Coupe de Ville
Scrape me off the ceiling
Oh yeah, too good to believe in
Rubber lover tugging on a daisy chain
Going coming, here I go again
In the middle of the evening
So damn sweeter
I got a penny in my pocket
To release that child within you
I don't want no one night stand
Jump into the fire from the frying pan
King Kong had a perfect plan
Got to get a woman
I've had a Barbie doll, I've done it all
Short ones tall ones big and small
But King Kong, baby, he had a ball
That's my kind of living
Oh yeah, why am I complaining?
I got money and I'm funny
And I'm semi-good looking
Keeps me good and lucky
Sometimes
I feel like Sodom and Gomorrah
But I tell you pretty mama
I could use a little more of you, you, you, you
About two in the morning
I get so damn easy
Let your fingers do the walking
And it won't take much to please me
I don't want no one night stand
Jump into the fire from the frying pan
King Kong, baby, he had a plan
Got to get a woman
I had a Barbie doll, I've done it all
Short ones, tall ones, big and small
But King Kong, baby, he had a ball
That's my kind of living
Why can't I have it all?
I just wanna have some kinda fun
Why can't I have it all?
Can it be over when it's just begun?
I need it, I want it, I'm frantic, I gotta have it
Automatic, manic, addict, democratic
About two in the morning
It gets so damn easy
Let my fingers do the walking
And the others do the talking
About the way and how to please me
I don't want no one night stand
Jump into the fire from the frying pan
King Kong, baby, he had a plan
Got to get a woman
I had a Barbie doll, I've done it all
Short ones, tall ones, big and small
But King Kong, baby, he had a ball
That's my kind of living
Yeah, that's my kind of living
