My bills are all due
And the baby needs shoes and I'm busted
Cotton is down to a quarter a pound
But I'm busted
I got a cow that went 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
Cause I'm 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 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 thinking about calling on you
Cause I'm busted.

Well, I am no thief
But a man can go wrong when he's busted
The food that we canned last summer
Is gone and I'm busted
The fields are all bare
And the cotton won't grow,
Me and my family got to pack up and go
But I'll make a living
Just where I don't know cause I'm busted

I'm broke, no bread, I mean like nothing
