MY BILLS ARE ALL DUE
AND THE BABY
NEEDS SHOES
AND I'M BUSTED
COTTON IS DOWN
TO A QUARTER A POUND
AND 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 COUNTY'S GONNA
HAUL
MY BELONGINGS AWAY
'CAUSE I'M BUSTED
YEAH
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' 'BOUT
CALLIN' ON YOU
AND I'M BUSTED
I'M BROKE
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
AND I'M BROKE
NO BREAD
I MEAN LIKE
NOTHIN'
