Broke Ass Blues

Maybe I'll go to work today
maybe I won't but I won't get paid
they got a guy who's bigger than me
hauls what I can, times three...
I was broke when I got home
soon found myself sleeping alone
it weren't much like before you
because unknowing is something I just can't do...
Now I don't ever want to talk anymore
just seem to lay around all day
These broke ass blues ain't nothing new
but I'll spin em round til they shine for you
I could dance right out that door
kiss my ass, you won't see it no more
Now I don't ever want to talk anymore
just seem to lay around all day
Bent back and broken
these blues have me chokin
on words that I'd saved for you
Maybe I'll go and find a job
maybe I'll suck, cheat, steal, and rob
to keep on getting by and by
--that's the goal until I die

Artist Getting On Blues

She asked what I was building
I said, “any empire that we choose,”
She laughed a kissed my neck
--I was a dreamer then
Every now and then
A struggling artist who paid their dues
Falls drunkenly asleep
And dies in the snow
**
I weren’t the worst
Won’t be the last
Worked any time that I found
Rolling smoke to get by
This old truck does ramble on
Til the day it breaks down on you
**
My first job out of school
Was the same as my last during school
I know what you’re thinking
But I swear I actually left
I had a dickhead boss
But me and my buddy Jeff
Would often go get high
In the parking lot
**
I was born under a rain cloud
I often mistook for piss
I once dreamt up a surgery
That drained it
My wife keeps a rainy day jar
Of loose change on shelf
But a year of daily floods
Long since claimed it
