Pardon my life, pardon my song I hope you're not nervous, I'm not going to stay long The one installment, I've made on your heart Is not enough to cover what we're willin' to start 'Cause I'm a flat broke love Lord I'm a flat broke love
I'm up or I'm down, never constant or sound Empty pockets full of grain The friends that I've loved, never feel I've been there I've never left a grateful one 'Cause I'm a flat broke love Well I'm a flat broke love Yeah I'm a flat broke love Baby I'm a flat broke love
'Cause I'm a flat broke love Yeah I'm a flat broke love I'm a flat broke love Lord I'm a flat broke love
I'll state you this claim, you've all played the game You've all upset somebody's cart I think you forgot, love needs more than one heart Without it, it can't hold a true flame
'Cause it's a flat broke love Yeah it's a flat broke love Hey it's a flat broke love Well it's a flat broke love Lord it's a flat broke love Flat broke love Baby it's a flat broke love It's a flat broke love Flat broke love Flat broke love Baby it's a flat broke love It's a flat broke love Oh it's a flat broke love
