Dust Bowl
I should know to leave them home. They
follow me through the store with
these toys I can't afford. Kids, take them back,
you know better than that.
Dolls that talk, astronauts, T.V. games,
airplanes, they don't understand and
how can I explain? I try and try but I can't save.
Pennies, nickels, dollars
slip away. I've tried and tried but I can't save.
My youngest girl has bad fever, sure. All
night with alcohol trying to
cool and to rub her down. Ruby, I'm tired, try and
get some sleep. I'm adding
doctor's fees to remedies to the cost of three
day's work lost. I try and try
but I can't save. Pennies, nickels, dollars slip
away. I've tried and tried but
I can't save. The hole in my pocketbook is
growing.
There's a new wind blowing they say, it's
gonna be a cold, cold one. So
brace yourselves my darlings, it won't bring
anything much our way but more
dust bowl days.
I played a card in this weeks game. Took the
first and the last letters
in three of their names. This lottery's been
building up for weeks. I could be
lucky me with the five million prize, tears of
disbelief spilling out of my
eyes. I try and try but I can't save. Pennies,
nickels, dollars slip away. I've
tried and tried but I can't save. The hole in my
pocketbook is growing.
There's a new wind blowing they say, it's
gonna be a cold, cold one. So
brace yourselves my darlings, it won't bring
anything much our way but more
dust bowl days.
