Todd Snider - Broke lyrics

Snider Credit complications in the check out line It's an awkward situation almost every time They keep your card behind and they keep your groceries too, yeah they do You try telling everybody it's a terrible mistake But you can tell they don't believe that's true It's written all over you when you're broke I hung my head down as I walked out the door I'm never ever going back to that store They treated me like a bum in front of everyone behind me in line It was all my friends and neighbors lookin' at me Like I'd committed some kind of crime I guess you ain't worth a dime when you're broke Why if I had money like I did in my day ? Just out of spite I think I'd give it away I thought it didn't even matter anyway And the more I thought the madder I got By the time I got home I was seeing red I pulled the gun up out from under my bed I put a sock on my head and into the night I flew, away I flew The next thing I know I've got blood on my hands But I've got money in my pockets too You never know what you'll do until you do what you do when you're broke Now if I had money like I did in my day I'd buy a car and drive us far away Of course you know I've got a debt to pay to society Honey, wait for me With good behavior I'll be out in seven years Don't worry over me or shed any tears I've learned a lot in here and I know what a chance I blew The next time I won't make the same mistake I'll shoot the camera out too I'm learning all kinds of things you can do when you're broke, I'm broke
