Champagne Taste (On a Beer Budget) - Home Free's Version
The other day I checked my bank account
And I could swear it was the wrong amount
And I didn't understand cause I'd been working hard
For the life of me I didn't know where it went
I hadn't even payed the rent
Then the Mercedes pulled up in the yard
Oh Lord, I should've seen it comin'
This time I'm in deep
Now I'm headin' to the poorhouse or headin' to jail
And if I end up there, I ain't makin' bail
And if it goes to court I sure don't have a case
Cause I ran out of money some time ago
But if you look at my wife you'd never know
I'm afraid my baby's got a champagne taste on a beer budget
Well my throat dried up and my heart just sank
As she motioned me over and popped the trunk
And I tried to ignore her absent minded smile
And boy I was greeted by quite the crew
There was some Louis Vuitton and some Jimmy Choo
That was just the fellas who were sittin' on top of the pile
I said, "baby, there's a Wallmart a block away
And I don't think they sell these brands"
Now I'm headin' to the poorhouse or headin' to jail
And if I end up there, I ain't makin' bail
And if it goes to court I sure don't have a case
Cause I ran out of money some time ago
But if you look at my wife you'd never know
I'm afraid my baby's got a champagne taste on a beer budget
All the bills are in my name
(All the bills are in his name)
They're gonna haul my ass away
(They're gonna haul his ass away)
And I won't see her pretty face at all
(Ohh)
Cause the prison's nowhere near the mall
Now I'm headin' to the poorhouse or headin' to jail
And if I end up there, I ain't makin' bail
And if it goes to court I sure don't have a case (yeehaw)
Cause I ran out of money some time ago
But if you look at my wife you'd never know
I'm afraid my baby's got a champagne taste on a beer budget
Hmmm
Hmmmm
Ohh ohh
And I could swear it was the wrong amount
And I didn't understand cause I'd been working hard
For the life of me I didn't know where it went
I hadn't even payed the rent
Then the Mercedes pulled up in the yard
Oh Lord, I should've seen it comin'
This time I'm in deep
Now I'm headin' to the poorhouse or headin' to jail
And if I end up there, I ain't makin' bail
And if it goes to court I sure don't have a case
Cause I ran out of money some time ago
But if you look at my wife you'd never know
I'm afraid my baby's got a champagne taste on a beer budget
Well my throat dried up and my heart just sank

Ohh ohh
