Broke Man Songtext
von Johnny B. Moore

You go to the church and bet all your dough
Your money you don′t have anymore
You done lost all your money just like a fool
You should have listened to your parents and stayed in school

What make a broke man sleep so sound
He didn't have a damn thing before he laid down
Now you stayin′ in bed and sleepin' all day
You know you got big bills to pay

You get mad at your wife because you done got broke
You done lost your job and that ain't no joke


What make a broke man sleep so sound
He didn′t have a damn thing before he laid down
Before he laid down

You get mad at your wife because you done got broke
You done lost your job and that ain′t no joke
You can't blame no one but yourself
Don′t take it out on no one else

Now what make a broke man sleep so sound
He didn't have a damn thing before he laid down

Now you′re walkin' in the streets and you′re gettin' real drunk
You're runnin′ ′round actin' just like a punk
You went walkin′ on ice and you slipped and fell
You woke up this mornin' and you was in jail

What make a broke man sleep so sound
He didn′t have a damn thing before he laid down
