Deeper In Debt

(John Wheeler)
from the John Wheeler album “Un-American Gothic” (2013)

Well the banker’s got plenty but I ain’t got any
And we just get deeper in debt
And I’m working like a slave but there’s nothing left to save
And we just get deeper in debt


I said deeper in debt
Well I’m skint yeah I’m skint
Before I even make it man it’s already spent


You know I’d drive us to the bar but they repossessed my car
And we just get deeper in debt
Hell I’d call you for a loan but they just cut off my phone
And we just get deeper in debt


I said deeper in debt
Well it’s mean yeah it’s mean
I’m feeling like a gear in a broken machine


Well the only way to get it is to put it on credit
And we just get deeper in debt
Yeah the principal’s renewing and the interest keeps accruing
And we just get deeper in debt


I said deeper in debt
Well I’m broke I’m flat broke
I’d hang myself but I can’t afford a rope


They say the government can save us from the misery they gave us
And we just get deeper in debt
They tax the drinkers and the smokers and they give it to the brokers
And we just get deeper in debt


I said deeper in debt
Well I’m screwed I’m so screwed
By the time I pay my tax bill there’s nothing left for food Lord
I said deeper in debt
Well it’s sick yeah it’s sick
Can’t feed my family man I think I’ll start throwing bricks


Because the banker’s got plenty but I ain’t got any
And we just get deeper in debt
And I’m working like a slave but there’s nothing left to save
And we just get deeper in debt


You know we just get deeper in debt
Man we just get deeper in debt
