Intro
Verse 1
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 county's gonna haul my
belongings away, cause I'm
Busted
Verse 2
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 thinking about
calling on you, cause I'm Busted
Verse 3
Well, I am no thief, but a man
can go wrong when he's Busted
The food that we canned 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 living, just
where I don't know, cause I'm
Busted
Coda
I'm broke, no bread,
I mean like nothing, forget
it
