Gettin' Rich, Goin' Broke
My aunt needs a new roof
My mama wants a house
My papa wants a blue truck
It's all he talks about
So I'll keep making records to pay these damn dues
Cause my mama wants a new house
And my aunt needs a roof
My sister needs a new dress
My cousin wants party shoes
My grandma needs a new couch
So I'll take her out to choose
So I'll keep making records
Till my heart turns blue
Cause my sister needs a new dress
And my cousin wants party shoes
Getting rich means goin broke
The more they take
The more there ain't no pennies in the piggy left for me
Every dollar that I make finds its way back home to my family
My uncle can't stop stealing
The sheriff wants a raise
My grandpa needs a new stone
To sit upon his grave
So I'll keep making records
To pay these damn dues
Cause my mama needs a new house
My grandma needs a new couch
My uncle needs a bail out or two
Cause my papa wants a blue truck
And my aunt needs a roof
Come on JR!
Getting rich means goin broke
The more they take the more there ain't
No pennies in the piggy left for me
Every dollar that I make
You bet your ass they're gonna take
Every single cent to my name
Every dollar that I make finds its way back home to my family
Yeah every dollar that I make
Finds its way back home to my family
My mama wants a house
My papa wants a blue truck
It's all he talks about
So I'll keep making records to pay these damn dues
Cause my mama wants a new house
And my aunt needs a roof
My sister needs a new dress
My cousin wants party shoes
My grandma needs a new couch
So I'll take her out to choose
So I'll keep making records
Till my heart turns blue
Cause my sister needs a new dress
And my cousin wants party shoes
Getting rich means goin broke
The more they take
The more there ain't no pennies in the piggy left for me
Every dollar that I make finds its way back home to my family
My uncle can't stop stealing
The sheriff wants a raise
My grandpa needs a new stone
To sit upon his grave
So I'll keep making records
To pay these damn dues
Cause my mama needs a new house
My grandma needs a new couch
My uncle needs a bail out or two
Cause my papa wants a blue truck
And my aunt needs a roof
Come on JR!
Getting rich means goin broke
The more they take the more there ain't
No pennies in the piggy left for me
Every dollar that I make
You bet your ass they're gonna take
Every single cent to my name
Every dollar that I make finds its way back home to my family
Yeah every dollar that I make
Finds its way back home to my family
