My bills are all due And the baby needs shoes And I'm busted Cotton is down To a quarter a pound But I'm busted
I got a cow that went dry And a hen that won't lay A big stack of bills That gets bigger each day The country's gonna haul my belongings away Casue I'm busted
I went to my brother To ask for a loan Cause I was busted I hate to beg Like a dog without his bone But I'm busted
My brother said there Ain't a thing I can do My wife and my kids Are all down with the flu And I was just thinkin' about callin' on you And I'm busted
Well I am no thief But a man can go wrong When he's busted The food that we canned The last summer is gone And I'm busted
The fields are all bare And the cotton won't grow Me and my family Got to pack up and go But I'll make a livin', just where I don't know Cause I'm busted
I'm broke No bread I mean like nothing Forget it ...
