Tom T. Hall - Wasted, Borrowed Money [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1:]
Oh, the years come tumbling down as if each one were a town
And I'm indebted to my friends for hanging out and hanging in
The debt is heavy on my mind
Friends been good and friends been kind
I lapped up my youth like honey just like wasted borrowed money

[Chous:]
Just like wasted borrowed money breathing air of another day
Spendin' next week's pretty sunshine on a dream that's gone away
Would you settle for me being what I am and where we are
Just like wasted borrowed money
Some of these memories are scarred

[Verse 2:]
My emotions are all bankrupt like a poor boy's country store
I left out that part about me dying oh I've done it all before
Maybe I can make it up some well Lord it's sad but it seems to me
Just like wasted borrowed money life's been catchin' up with me

[Chorus]
