Lyrics

One Debt Away

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

You better call your brother up to save your neck

You better get a real job and fix this wreck

You better claim your income like the real men do

You better send your 1099 to anyone you gave 5 bucks to

All in all we're one debt away (one debt away)

All in all there's one more bill to pay

Be glad to be home

Be glad to be home

You better call the doctor up if you're feeling sick

Go get a gun and rob someone to pay for it

You better leave that bar alone and come home tonight

You better thank God, work today, and hope that your boy grows up alright

All in all we're one debt away (one debt away)

All in all there's one more bill to pay

Be glad to be home

Be glad to be home

Be glad to be home

Be glad to be home

You better make your lady have just one more kid

And then collect that government check for what you did

You better love your country and be willing to die

You better arrest your president to live on your pay and still get by

Yea, we'll always be one debt away (one debt away)

And there will always be one more bill to pay

And you better...

Be glad to be home

Be glad to be home

Be glad to be home

Be glad to be home
