Bad Checks                              © L. Dunn ‘96

               Verse                    
                                                          Don’t know where my last dollar’s comin’ from                                                          
                                                           Got no job, still I keep on lookin’                                                                    
                                      Love I’ve lost, my heart’s been broke                                            
                  What’s worse, I miss cold cash the most                       
              Chorus                 
They say crime doesn’t pay, but I’m so broke I could steal
Print up my own tens and twenties; write bad checks to pay the bills
                 Verse                    
                                                      I’ve been standin’ and standin’ in the unemployment line                                                        
                                                         I’d take a graveyard shift, why I’d work anytime                                                       
                                                This situation I would rather forget                                                 
     So many bills and no money left
                 Chorus                 
Solo
                  Verse                    
                                                         All these politicians on the take                                                       
                                                           Looks like the rule’s been made to break                                                      
                                          With these kick backs and dirty deals goin’ down                                       
   I’d like to be the crook that’s runnin’ this town
                                                                                 Chorus                                                                                
Solo
               Verse               
                                                        Don’t know where my next dollar’s comin’ from                                                        
                                                  Got no job, still I keep on lookin’                                                    
                                                            Love I’ve lost, my heart’s been broke                                                            
What’s worse, I miss cold cash the most
               Chorus
