The Poor House Lyrics & Chords By The Boxmasters

Reno is sparkling ahead, honey
I thought I'd give you a call
Looking for tomato to be sunny
In the midst of this snowfall
I let you and the kids down
For way too long now
Hoping to turn our life around
If I can just figure out how
I'm working on a plan to save our home
Keep us out of the poor house, pay off those loans
I'm working on a plan to save our home
Keep us out of the poor house and I won't do it stoned
I'll sit with the grannies at the nickel machines
And pull handles till my hands are blue
I'll do just about anything
To bring a future home to you
I'll put down the pills and liquor
You know I tried to keep a job
I just think that this'll be quicker
If I can win a little of the mob
Well my plan don't work exactly, honey
But I do have a little good news
I'm not bringing home any money
But I didn't turn back to booze
I guess its back to the drawing board
Ideas are starting to brew
I'm bringing back all I can afford
And that's love to the kids and you
