I know that it's evil |
I know that it's got to be |
Know I ain't doing much |
Doing nothing means a lot to me |
Living on a shoestring |
A fifty cent millionaire |
Open to charity |
Rock 'n' roll welfare |
Sitting in my Cadillac |
Listening to my radio |
Susy baby get on in |
Tell me where you wanna go |
I'm living in a nightmare |
She's looking like a wet dream |
I got myself a Cadillac |
But I can't afford the gasoline |
CHORUS: |
I got holes in my shoes |
And I'm way overdue |
Down payment blues |
Get myself a steady job |
Some responsibility |
Can't even feed my cat |
On social security |
Hiding from the rent man |
Oh it makes me wanna cry |
Sheriff knocking on my door |
Ain't it funny how the time flies |
Sitting on my sailing boat |
Sipping on my champagne |
Susy baby all at sea |
Say she wanna come again |
Feeling like a paper cup |
Floating down a storm drain |
Got myself a sailing boat |
But I can't afford a drop of rain |
REPEAT CHORUS |
Down payment blues |
Down payment blues |
Down payment blues |
REPEAT CHORUS |
