CCredit complications in the Amcheckout line
CIts an awkward situation almost Amevery time
They keep your Fcard behind and Gthey keep your groceries Ctoo, yeah they Gdo
You try Amtelling everybody it's a Gterrible mistake
But you can Ctell they don't believe that's Ftrue
They see it Call over Gyou when you're Cbroke
I hung my head down as I walked out the door
I'm never ever going back to that store
They treated me like a bum in front of everyone behind me in line
It was all my friends and neighbors looking at me
Like I committed some kind of crime
I guess you ain't worth a dime when your broke
Chorus:
Now if FI had money like I Cdid in my day
FJust out of spite I think I'd Cgive it away
I Fthought it didn't even Cmatter anyway and
And the Dmore I thought the Gmadder I got
By the time i got home, I was seein' red
I pulled a gun up out from under my bed
I put a sock on my head and into the night I flew, away I flew
The next thing you know I had blood on my hands
But I had money in my pockets too
You never know what you'll do until you do what you do when your broke
Chorus 2:
Now if I had money like i did in my day
I'd buy a car and drive us far away
I guess you know i have this debt to pay
To society, honey wait for me
With good behavior I'll be out in seven years
Don't worry over me or shed any tears
I learned a lot in here and I know what a chance I blew, chance I blew
The next time I won’t make the same mistake
I'll shoot the camera out too
I'm learning all kinds of things you can do when your broke
