I Ain't Broke But I'm Badly Bent Lyrics - Del Reeves

I ain't broke but I'm badly bent 

I had a little money but that's all been spent 

When I look back I wonder where it went 

It ain't no joke I ain't broke but I'm badly bent 

I went to see a so-called friends 

To get a little help for the tie I was in 

I said I'll pay you back someday when my rich uncle passes away 

But he looked at me kinda foolishly and then he had these words to say 

He said I ain't broke but I'm badly bent... 

Then I called my true love on the phone 

The one I spent my last dollar on 

I said I'll pay you back someday when my rich uncle passes away 

But she said I'm through with the likes of you 

And she had a quite few more words to say
