Tom T. Hall - Wasted, Borrowed Money lyrics
[Tom T. Hall - Wasted, Borrowed Money lyrics]
If each one were a town
And I'm indebted to my friends for
Hanging out and hanging in
The debt is heavy on my mind
Friends been good and friends been kind
I lapped up my youth like honey
Just like wasted borrowed money
Just like wasted borrowed money breathing
Air of another day
Spendin' next week's pretty sunshine on
A dream that's gone away
Would you settle for me being what
I am and where we are
Just like wasted borrowed money
Some of these memories are scarred
My emotions are all bankrupt like
A poor boy's country store
I left out that part about me dying
Oh I've done it all before
Maybe I can make it up some well Lord
It's sad but it seems to me
Just like wasted borrowed money life's
Been catchin' up with me
