Busted - Gene Rockwell
My bills are all due and the babies need shoes
But i'm busted
Cotton is gone down to a quarter a pound
But i'm busted
I got a cow that's gone dry and a hen that won't lay
A big stack of bills that get bigger each day
The county's gonna haul my belongings away
Cause i'm busted
Cause on my brother to ask for a loan
Cause i was busted
What 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 my kids are all down with the flu
And i was just thinkin' of callin' on you
Cause i'm busted
Lord i'm no thief but a man can go wrong
When he's busted
Busted
The food that we canned last summer is gone
I'm busted busted
Where the fields are all dry and the cotton won't grow
Me and my family gotta pack up and go
And i'll make a living just where i don't knows
Cause i'm busted
Yeah come broken
Busted
