New Song - June 25

here's a new song from this morning... imagine it played with an out of tune banjo and pots and pans...

broke

I was broken when I came out of my ma
I was broken when I came out of my ma
it took me down a notch when she gave back what she saw
I was broken when I came out of my ma

I hit the road at the age of five
I hit the road at the age of five
I was short and I was broke --- but glad to be alive
I hit the road at the age of five

broken like a watch that doesn't tick
broken like a pony without a single trick
I'm broken like a car that refuses to go
I'm broken babe, 'cause broke is all I know

my best part broke in birmingham
my best part broke in birmingham
I tried to get it fixed but they didn't give a damn
my best part broke in birmingham

I tried to trust a girl named annalee
I tried to love a girl named annalee
she broke my heart in two then she blamed it all on me
I tried to love a girl named annalee

broken like a watch that doesn't tick
broken like a pony without a single trick
I'm broken like a car that refuses to go
I'm broken babe, 'cause broke is all I know
