croy and the boys - i'm broke lyrics
[chorus]
i’m broke, i ain’t joking
i’m bummed, cuz i’m slumming
i’m down, and i’m drowning
and there ain’t n0body that’ll lend me a hand
[verse 1]
well, i’m a working man, but i ain’t been working
they say keep looking, but i been searching
starting to think all the jobs are gone
i been off so long, i can’t remember on
[verse 2]
my daddy always told me, “son
if you work hard, the work will come”
well, those days must have passed
last month welfare saved my ass
[chorus]
and i’m broke, i ain’t joking
i’m bummed, cuz i’m slumming
i’m down, and i’m drowning
and there ain’t n0body that’ll lend me a hand
[verse 3]
well, the years go by and i just get fatter
they cut my lights off, i just get madder
gave my best years to a factory
i had three kids and stability
[verse 4]
now i sold everything i love and i still can’t feed ’em
the sk!lls i got, the world don’t need em
tell me, what am i supposed to do?
i guess i’m going back to working fast food
[chorus]
i’m broke, i ain’t joking
i’m bummed, cuz i’m slumming
i’m down, and i’m drowning
and there ain’t n0body that’ll lend me a hand
[verse 5]
well, i’m a full grown man—”hi, how can i help you?”
“the cheese costs extra on the number three special”
well, the customer said that i was rude
i should smile more, and lose the attitude
[verse 6]
i only had one finger to give
i ain’t asking for much, i’m just trying to live
besides, that job was just minimum wage
80 hours a week, the bills still weren’t paid
[chorus]
and i’m broke, i ain’t joking
i’m bummed, cuz i’m slumming
i’m down, and i’m drowning
and there ain’t n0body that’ll lend me a hand
[verse 7]
well, one of the worst parts of all
is people all talking like it’s my fault
like i made money off the nafta deal
i’m a good hearted man, but if i gotta steal
[verse 8]
crime, it don’t come easily
to those of us that’s just trying to eat
and the same ones sent my job overseas
will make money when they incarcerate me
[chorus]
cuz i’m broke, i ain’t joking
i’m bummed, cuz i’m slumming
i’m down, and i’m drowning
and there ain’t n0body that’ll lend me a hand
