Southside Johnny & The Asbury Jukes - Tell' Em I'm Broke lyrics

Tell 'Em I'm Broke (J. Lyon/G. Tallent) People, I used to be so down and out They called me the hard luck kid I just couldn't seem to catch a break No matter what I did...no no All these bill collectors would call me up Cryin' for the money I owed I'd just tell 'em I'm broke And don't come 'round here no mo'...uh uh I went to see this old buddy of mine 'Cause I knew he had some money to lend But when I rang his front door bell His wife wouldn't let me in...huumm I heard him shout from the pool out back As she was slammin' that door Tell 'em I'm broke And don't come 'round here no mo' Can you believe this stuff?! What that old fool doesn't realize is; I know I got the winning lot'ry ticket Right here in my pocket And when I collect ALL my winning's... Brother, are we gonna have a time... And he ain't gonna be invited I feel pretty good already... I think I'll blow some harp Yeah, there'll be long haired misses In co*ktail dresses And buddies from my life of crime I'll buy drinks in every dive in Jersey And I ain't savin' one damn dime And if that fool starts to come around Knock-knock-knockin' on my back door We'll just tell 'em I'm broke And don't come 'round here no more
