Official audio for "Busted” by Willie Nelson

“Busted” from I DON’T KNOW A THING ABOUT LOVE: THE SONGS OF HARLAN HOWARD

Amongst the nearly 150 albums that Willie Nelson has released, he has a number of amazing full-album tributes to songwriters from Kris Kristofferson and George Gershwin to Ray Price and Cindy Walker. Adding to that list is a new studio album dedicated to songwriting legend Harlan Howard who has scores of country hits including a number that crossed over to pop and even R&B charts. A member of both the Country Music Hall of Fame and Songwriters Hall Of Fame, Howard wrote hits for Ray Charles (“Busted”), Buck Owens (“Tiger By The Tail”), Conway Twitty (the title track), Bobby Bare (“Streets Of Baltimore”) and so many more. Produced by longtime collaborator Buddy Cannon and featuring a murderers’ row of crack Nashville musicians, I Don’t Know A Thing About Love is an amazing addition to Willie’s unparalleled catalog.

Lyrics:

Yeah, my bills are all due and the baby needs shoes but I'm busted

Cotton is down, quarter a pound but I'm busted

I got cow that went dry, hen that won't lay

Big stack of bills gettin' bigger each day

County's gonna haul my name, know that I went and I'm busted

Well, I went to my brother to ask for a loan 'cause I was busted

But I hate to beg like a dog for a bone but I'm busted

But my brother said, "There ain't a thing I can do

My wife and my kids are all down with the flu

I was just thinking about calling on you 'cause I'm busted"

And I am no thief but a man can go wrong when he's busted

The food that we canned last summer is gone and I'm busted

Well, the fields are all bare and the cotton won't grow

And my family and I had to pack up and go

I'll make a living, my Lord, how I don't know 'cause I'm busted
