[Chorus]
Life and debt
Two things that seem to get along
Can't get from under it
[And?] just keeps adding to the loan
If you find yourself up a creek with no paddle
Just remember that life and debt always in constant battle
[Verse 1]
Piles and piles and miles of cash
Couldn't get me back to where I once was at
Standing in the red looking at the black
It's a doggone shame when you lose your stack
It's a crying shame you won't get it back
[Chorus]
Life and debt
Two things that seem to get along
Can't get from under it
[And?] just keeps adding to the loan
If you find yourself up a creek with no paddle
Just remember that life and debt always in constant battle
[Verse 2]
Well I went to the man to advance my line
Said "A hundred in cash to get me through a hard time"
Oh the banker, he looked and he shook his head
Said "The bank's broke too, ain't got no bread
"All the money's in the politicians' hands"
[Chorus]
Life and debt
Two things that seem to get along
Can't get from under it
[And?] just keeps adding to the loan
If you find yourself up a creek with no paddle
Just remember that life and debt always in constant battle
Just remember that life and debt always in constant battle
Life and debt
