Correction Lyrics Debtor’s Blues (Luck Mansion Sessions) by Vincent Neil Emerson

Back

Lyrics

This next song is about bein' broke
This is called "Debtor's Blues"

Well, the world is on its head
And I thank my lucky stars that I ain't dead
I've spent my whole life in the red
And I've done my best to keep my family fed
So when I lay my burdens down
Keep my debts out of your mind just for a while
All my troubles and my trials
They lay scattered on the trail for miles and miles

I've been payin' my whole life
Tryin' hard to find the blame for all my strife
I've been burnin' through my checks
But I never felt thеir gold around my neck
Oh, but that gold, it don't shine
As bright as worn-out steel rail on the linе
So if you ride it, you might find
That the faces on your change will change with time

I was a victim of the charge
Made and spent my pay in honky tonks and bars
But good times don't pay the bills
And a belly by itself does not fill
So I keep savin' up my pay
Waitin' on a new uncloudy day
I watch all the hard times drift away
And I'll no longer be chained to their dismay
Well, the world is on its head
And I thank my lucky stars that I ain't dead
I've spent my whole life in the red
And I've done my best to keep my family fed
So when I lay my burdens down
Keep my debts out of your mind just for a while
All my troubles and my trials
They lay scattered on the trail for miles and miles

All my troubles and my trials
They lay scattered on the trail for miles and miles
