Flat Busted

Well, it's all over town

I'm back in the lost and found

And can't figure out who

Stuck me in this place that I'm in

Was it the tall blonde my downfall

Or the writing on my body and all over the wall

Hey everybody, there was my friend

You know I'd do it over again

Now I'm flat busted and out of gas

Ain't got no job, but lots of class

I'll be O.K. when it's all through

As long as baby I got you

Well, here we go again

Well, we're spinnin' our wheels on the road again

When right of nowhere

We're hijacked by these chicks from the zoo

Well, by the mornin' we was lookin' pale

The man in blue wants our money for bail

My lawyer said it's sink or swim

I swear I'm never drinkin' again

Now I'm flat busted and out of gas

Ain't got no job, but lots of class

I'll be O.K. when it's all through

As long as baby I got you

You know it never fails

Try to be good but my train derails

You know I work so hard

Try to be good fall asleep in my car

You know it can't be true

Thought I was smart but I ain't got a clue

All this frustration, it's got me again

I always end up back where I began

So take it from one whose nose

Knows all about things he'll never disclose

Unless it comes down to playin' that rhythm and blues

Cause it's one for the money, two for the show

Three for the party, hey baby let's go

Just take me where you want to go

And don't let anybody know

That I'm flat busted and out of gas

Ain't got no job, but lots of class

I'll be O.K. when it's all through

As long as baby I got you

You know I'm flat busted and out of gas

Ain't got no job, but lots of class

I'll be O.K. when it's all through

As long as baby I got, I got you - and your wallet, too
