Lyrics The Hellacopters

The Hellacopters

Born Broke

Staying straight, got me so strung out

Being sure just put me in doubt

Your teaching really made me dumb

Don't call me slacker 'cuz I am a bum

Hang around the wrong kind of streets

Can't get out but I can take the heat

Smokin' cigarettes 'til I choke 'cuz

I was born baby, born to be broke

Born broke

Oh yes, I'm born broke

Oh yes, I'm born broke

Born broke

Down another six-pack

Please get 'em off my back

If I can keep the I.R.S. away

From my guitar I will be okay

'Cuz I'm broke

Oh yes, I'm born broke

Oh yes, I'm born broke

I'm born broke, born broke

Staying straight, got me so strung out

Being sure just put me in doubt

Your teaching really made me dumb

Don't call me slacker 'cuz I am a bum

Hang around the wrong kind of streets

Can't get out but I can take the heat

Smokin' cigarettes 'til I choke

'Cuz I was born baby, born to be broke

Born broke

Oh yes, I'm born broke

Oh yes, I'm born broke

Yes, I'm born broke

I'm broke

Yes, I'm born broke

Yes, I'm born broke

Yes, I'm born broke
