Lyrics

I'm a-goin' back to the country

I can't pay the rent

No, I'm not completely broke

But, brother, I'm badly bent

I can't understand

Where my money went

Well, I ain't broke

But I'm badly bent

When I get back to the country

I'll be livin' in a tent

Ma and Pa were sure mad

About all the money I spent

I can't understand

Just where it went

Well, I ain't broke

But I'm badly bent

Well, I had a lot of money

But to the city I went

I met too many good-lookin' girls

And that's where my money went

Now I know

Just where it went

Well, I ain't broke

But I'm badly bent

I can't understand

Where my money went

Well, I ain't broke
