The White Stripes' Lyrics
Bone Broke
Look closer you can see
How I been running it.
I got a dollar bill in the cockpit.
Surprised being white is a black hole?
I got another job at the liquor store.
Damn, I'm bone broke.
They got a white pony in a stable
And ride him when the doggie isn't able.
But he don't really care, 'cause they pay him.
But still a black suit
Is gonna shake him down.
Oh well
I'm bone broke.
Broke as I'll ever be.
Look another way girl I'm telling ya
God gave seven minutes right to ya.
And your mother put her money into platinum
So that you wouldn't have to pay
Attention.
Right?
I'm leaning on a brick with my nails,
I'm telling 'em the money's in the mail.
Keep showing that my bones
Never fake it
But still a brick bank is gonna break it down.
Oh well
I'm bone broke.
Look another way girl I'm telling ya
God gave seven minutes right to ya.
Your mother put her money into platinum
And now you never have to pay
Attention.
Do you?
