Busted — текст песни (nazareth)

My bills are all due and the baby needs shoes

And Im busted

Cotton is down to a quarter a pound

But Im busted

I got a cow that went dry and a hen that wont lay

A big stack of bills that gets bigger each day

The countys gonna haul my belongings away

cause Im busted.



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 Im busted

My brother said there aint a thing I can do

My wife and my kids are all down with the flu

And I was just thinking about callin on you

And Im busted.



Well I am no thief but a man can go wrong

When hes busted

The food that we packed that last summer is gone

And Im busted

The fields are all bare and the cotton wont grow

Me and my famly got to pack up and go

But Ill make a living just where I dont know

cause Im busted.
