And we traded the cow so we can't pass the milk
Our jeans all need patching, our eggs all need yolks
And we might be laughing but it ain't no joke, y'all
We're broke, we're busted
Our Chevy truck is rusted
We're high and dry
Ain't enough apples for the apple pie
If we had a penny we sure couldn't spare it
Sitting on the porch drinking generic Coke
We're broke
The jars all need pickles, the greens all need collards
Been ribbing these nickels but ain't got no dollars
We dig our own ditches, we roll our own smokes
And we're secretly wishing that grandma would croak
'Cause we're broke, we're busted
Our Chevy truck is rusted
We're high and dry
Ain't enough apples for the apple pie
If we had a penny we sure couldn't spare it
Sitting on the porch drinking generic Coke
We're broke
Good thing you're good-looking
Good thing I'm so funny
Too bad the sugar
Can't melt into honey
The white left the picket, the fleas left the hound, yeah
And even the crickets have moved into town
Now we get our kicks off of stuff we can grow
'Cause our here in the sticks, all us regular folks, y'all
We're broke, we're busted
Our Chevy truck is rusted
We're high and dry
Ain't enough apples for the apple pie
If we had a penny we sure couldn't spare it
Sitting on the porch drinking generic Coke
We're broke
No gas for the plow so the corn's gone to silk And we traded the cow so we can't pass the milk Our jeans all need patching, our eggs all need yolks And we might be laughing but it ain't no joke, y'all We're broke, we're busted Our Chevy truck is rusted We're high and dry Ain't enough apples for the apple pie If we had a penny we sure couldn't spare it Sitting on the porch drinking generic Coke We're broke The jars all need pickles, the greens all need collards Been ribbing these nickels but ain't got no dollars We dig our own ditches, we roll our own smokes And we're secretly wishing that grandma would croak 'Cause we're broke, we're busted Our Chevy truck is rusted We're high and dry Ain't enough apples for the apple pie If we had a penny we sure couldn't spare it Sitting on the porch drinking generic Coke We're broke Good thing you're good-looking Good thing I'm so funny Too bad the sugar Can't melt into honey The white left the picket, the fleas left the hound, yeah And even the crickets have moved into town Now we get our kicks off of stuff we can grow 'Cause our here in the sticks, all us regular folks, y'all We're broke, we're busted Our Chevy truck is rusted We're high and dry Ain't enough apples for the apple pie If we had a penny we sure couldn't spare it Sitting on the porch drinking generic Coke We're broke Explain Request ×
