Busted
By John Conlee
Drop D Tuning (for the intro)
G - 5X0003
[D]Well, my bills are all due and the baby needs shoes but Iâ??[A]m busted
Cotton is down to a quarter a pound and Iâ??[D]m busted
I got a cow thatâ??s gone dry a hen that wonâ??t lay
A [G]big stack of bills that get bigger each day
The [A]countyâ??s gonna haul my belongings away
Cause Iâ??[D]m busted
I called up 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, â??There ainâ??t a thing I can do
My wife and the kids are all down with the flu
And I was just thinkinâ??s â??bout callinâ?? on you
Cause Iâ??m busted
Lead solo
Now Iâ??m no thief but a man can go wrong when heâ??s busted
The food that we canned last summer is gone and weâ??re busted
The fields are all bare and the cotton wonâ??t grow
Me and my familyâ??s gotta pack up and go
Iâ??ll make a livinâ??, just where I donâ??t know
Cause Iâ??m busted
