I've been laid off from work my rent is due |
|
My kids all need brand new shoe |
|
So I went to the bank to see what they could do |
|
They said, "Son look like bad luck got a hold on you" |
|
Money's too tight to mention |
|
I can't get an unemployment extension |
|
Money's too tight to mention |
|
I went to my brother to see what he could do |
|
He said brother I'd like to help but I'm unable to |
|
So I called on my father, oh my father |

|
"Money's too tight to mention" |
