I'll Break Before I Bend Lyrics - Allison Moorer

It wears on my patience when I talk to those deejays 

At the corporation station they slather on false praise 

Even though I'm slow I know no radio will give my record spins 

Lean on me all you want to, I'll break before I bend 

Way up in those ivory towers with gold records on the walls 

All the big wigs got the power but they ain't got the balls 

The desk bound clowns that run this town 

Have watered down the sound just like their gin 

Lean on me all you want to, I'll break before I bend 

Hell yeah I'd love to make it but I suck at playing games 

I'd rather starve than fake it for a little taste of fame 

It's wrong to be a doggone pawn singing songs that make 

You yawn for payments on a long mercedes benz 

Lean on me all you want to, I'll break before I bend
