Testi

[Verse 1]
Yeah, my bills are all overdue and the baby needs shoes, but I'm busted
Cotton is down to a quarter a pound, but I'm busted right now
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 county's gonna call my baby
Now we go away 'cause I'm busted right now
Oh, yes, I am
[Verse 2]
Well, I went to my brother to ask for a loan 'cause I was busted
I hate to beg like a dog without a bone, but I'm busted, I tell ya
My brother said, "There ain't a thing I can do"
My wife and my kids all down with the flu
And I was just thinkin' about callin' on you 'cause I'm busted myself
Well, that's what he told me
[Verse 3]
Yeah, I am no thief but a man can go wrong when he is busted
The food that we canned last summer is gone and I'm busted right now
Well, the fields are all bare and the cotton won't grow
Me and my family got to pack up and go
I'll make a livin' where I don't know 'cause I'm busted today
[Verse 4]
Y'all know I'm broke?
I ain't got no money
I'm talkin' 'bout empty pocket
Ah, forget it
Oh, the hell with it
Yeah
