Lyric Busted

(Harlan Howard)

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

I went to my brother to ask for a loan; I was busted
I hate to beg like a dog for a bone, but I m busted
My brother said, "There ain t a thing I can do.
My wife and kids are all down with the flu,
Yeah, I m busted..."

PIANO SOLO; REPEAT FIRST VERSE

I m busted...
