Waylon Jennings - Busted Lyrics
(Harlan Howard)My bills are all due and the baby needs shoes. but I'm bustedCotton is down to a quarter a pound. and I'm bustedI got a cow that's gone dry and a hen that won't layA big stack of bills gettin' bigger each day.The county will haul my belongings away, 'cause I'm bustedI went to see my brother, gonna ask him for a loan, I was bustedI hate to beg like a dog for a bone, but I'm bustedMy brother said there ain't one thing I can doWife and the kids they're all down with the fluI was just thinking about calling on you, 'cause I'm busted.--- Instrumental ---I ain't no thief but a man can go wrong, when he's bustedThe food that we canned last summer is gone, and I'm bustedWell, the fields are all bare and the cotton won't growMe and my family gotta pack up and goI'll make a living but where I don't know, I'm just busted...
