lyrics

I paid my bills
I paid my rent
I had a little money
But my money's all spent
I got nothing coming down the line

Took my last 250 to the five and dime
For a sack of potatoes and a box of wine

Got nothing coming down the line

Something's better than nothing...
But I could use something
Coming down the line

The inflation game
It's all the same
Even when they try to change its name
I got nothing coming down the line

I know I'm the only one to blame
I'd trade starvation for a minute of fame

Got nothing coming down the line

Something's better than nothing...
Sometimes something's the same as nothing
But I could use something
Coming down the line
