Busted Lyrics & Chords By Wanda Jackson

Oh, my bills are all due and the baby needs shoes
'Cause I'm busted
Cotton is 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 gets bigger each day
The county will haul my belongings away
'Cause I'm busted
I went to my brother to ask for a loan
'Cause I'm 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 my kids are all down with the flu
And I was just thinkin' 'bout callin' on you
'Cause I'm busted"
Well, I am no thief but a gal can go wrong
When she's busted
The food that I canned last summer is gone
And I'm busted
The fields are all bare and the cotton won't grow
Me and my kids gotta pack up and go
But I'll make a living, just where I don't know
'Cause I'm busted
Yeah, I'm broke
Flat broke
No bread
I mean nothing
