Busted (Other Song)

Intro:

G////// G////// G////// G//////

My bilGls are all due and the babies need shoes, but I'm D7busted.

Cotton is down to a quarter a pound, and I'm Gbusted.

I got a Gcow that went dry and a hen that won't lay;

a bCig stack of bills that gets bigger each day.

The countD7y will haul my belongings away. I'm Gbusted.

G////// C////// G////// D7//////

I Gwent to my brother to ask for a loan; I was D7busted.

I hate to beg like a dog for a bone, but I'm Gbusted.

My Gbrother said, "There ain't a thing I can do.

My wifCe and my kids are all down with the flue,

and I waD7s just thinkin' of callin' on you. I'm Gbusted.

G////// C////// G////// D7//////

GLord, I'm no thief but a man can go wrong when he's D7busted.

The food that we canned last summer is gone, and I'm Gbusted.

The Gfields are all bare and the cotton won't grow.

CMe and my family gotta pack up and go.

Where I'll D7make a livin' the Lord only knows, but I'm Gbusted.

Repeat and fade
