Busted Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]Wel[Em]l my [D]bills are all due and the baby
needs shoes and I'm [A]busted
Cotton is down to a quarter
a pound but I'm [D]busted
I got a cow that went dry
and a hen that won't lay
A [G]big stack of bills that gets
bigger each day
[A]The county's gonna

[Verse 2]
haul my
belongings away and I'm [D]busted
Now I went to my brother to ask
for a loan cause I was [A]busted
I hate to beg like a dog without a
bone but [D]I'm bus[G]ted

[Verse 3]
[D]My brother said there
ain't a thing I can do
My [G]wife and my kids are
all down with the flu
[A]And I was just

[Verse 4]
thinkin' about calling on you
and I'm [D]busted[Eb][Ab][Eb][Ab][Eb]
Well I am no [Bb]thief [Eb]but a man can go
wrong when he's [Bb]busted
The food that we canned last summer
is gone and I'm [Eb]busted

[Verse 5]
[Eb]
The fields are all bare and the
cotton won't grow
[Ab]Me and my family's gotta pack up and go
But [Bb]I'll make a living just where I
don't know cause I'm [Eb]busted
Lord I'm broke ain't
got no biscuits in this house
