— Martha Ellis, 1953
I'm going back to the country, cause I can't pay my rent
No I'm not completely broke, but brother I'm badly bent
Can't understand, where my money went
Well, I'm not broke, but I'm badly bent.
They warned me 'bout the city, about the city life
But I thought I knew everything, and took no one's advice.
Now I wonder where my money went
Well, ain't broke, but I'm badly bent.
When I get back to the country, I'll be livin' in a tent.
'Cause my Ma and Pa are gonna be mad 'bout all the money I spent
Can't understand where my money went
Well, I ain't broke, but I'm badly bent.
Well, I had plenty money, but to the city I went
I met too many purty gals, and now my money's spent
And now I know, where my money went
Well, I ain't broke, but I'm badly bent.
Tag:
Well, I know, just where it went
I ain't broke, but brother I'm badly bent.
