BILLS TO PAY

I had a little but a little wasn't good enough so I took it and I made a little more

I didn't make it but I took it and I drove it down down the street to the corner store

And by store I mean the pickup in the parking lot run by a dude and his little four

Kids they weren't his but to him it was a win cuz he hustled me down to the floor

 

All I wanted was a ticket cuz he told me he had fixed it to a horse that was gonna score

And as I drove away I realized that I had paid for more and now I'm just dirt poor

Now I'm down on my knees begging oh God please I need a win cuz I can't pay no more

If this horse is a quitter than I'm really in the shitter cuz my landlord says I'm out the door

 

I got bills to pay and no money saved and no place to call my home

I don't spend my days working my ass away so I guess I should have known

 

Driving to the track with my buddy in the back and this lady he was trying to score

She's a real down-towner couldn't have said it any louder and she hustles on down to the floor

And as I'm looking in the mirror they're getting busy in the rear and I drove my car into a ditch

Now I'm shit out of luck I've got to spend another buck I got to pay a guy to give me a hitch

 

I got bills to pay and no money saved and no place to call my home

I don't spend my days working my ass away so I guess I should have known

Living casually never set me free and I'm in debt right down to the bone

I'm no prodigy so there's no money for me looks like I'm living life on my own

 

Oh my God oh my God

I've been searching for something never reaching for nothing

I'm an old sick bastard case in an unfamiliar place and I'm crawling my way back through tiny cracks

Oh my God oh my God

I'm a used up canon I'll fire at nothing

So just put your faith in me and you'll finally start to see that I'm almost just like you

 

I got bills to pay and no money saved and no place to call my home

I don't spend my days working my ass away so I guess I should have known

Living casually never set me free and I'm in debt right down to the bone

I'm no prodigy so there's no money for me looks like I'm living life on my own

Looks like I'm living life on my own

Looks like I'm living life on my own
