Lee Taylor - Broke Lyrics

I got two cents to my name ain't had nothing to eat all-day
Gonna drink me this here beer and hope my troubles go away
Who do you turn to when everyone is struggling
And all those public organizations cut their funding
I would say things will get better but I ain't nobody's fool
I'm broke I'm hungry ragged and dirty too

I got bills on top of bills and I still owe for my rent
My car is in the shop but all my moneys spent
All the helping hands are reaching out just like me
Crabs in a bucket freedom just is out of reach
Mamma said keep your head up but it's just so hard to do
When your broke, your hungry ragged, and dirty too

Look at all these people makin money off of me
Makes it pretty easy when my labors next to free
2.13 an hour ain't gon help me get ahead
When all I got is crumbs and stay reachin for that bread
They like to sell me dreams that my riches will come too
Nah but I'm broke I'm hungry ragged and dirty too

My daddy lost his house and he worked his life away
Apparently, he's worth more when he's lyin in his grave
I'm just so angry I want all the banks to burn
Renegotiate everything on our people's terms
The last would all be first and we could stop singing these blues
When were woke were hungry active and angry too
El pueblo unido jamas sera vencido
When were broke hungry ragged and dirty too
