Busted
Johnny Tillotson

Well, my bills are all due

And the baby needs shoes and I'm busted

Cotton is down to a quarter of a pound, 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's gonna haul my belongings away, I'm busted

(He's busted)


I went to my brother to ask for a loan 'cause I was busted

Now I hate to beg like a dog for a bone but I was busted

My brother said there's not a thing I can do

My wife and my kids are all down with the flu

And I was just thinking about calling on you 'cause I'm busted

(He's busted)


Though I am no thief but a man can go wrong if he's busted

The food that we canned last summer is gone, I'm busted

Now the fields are all bare and the cotton won't grow

Me and my wife we gotta pack up and go

I'll make a living, just how I don't know 'cause I'm busted
