[Verse 1]

Empty pockets got no jingle or clink

No smoke no fire no whiskey to drink

The woman’s tired she said she's done

Sewer's busted man ain't nothing fun

[Chorus]

Got no money just the echo inside

Counting cracks where my hope used to hide

Life's a river but the current won’t flow

Blues fill the holes where the light won’t go

[Verse 2]

Shoes got holes mud’s slipping through

Dreams got swallowed by this deep dark brew

At the corner store they don’t even ask

My face says it all I’m a broken flask

[Bridge]

No bills no thrills no bright neon light

Just shadows whispering hey it's gonna be tight

Even the moon hung its head tonight

Ain't nothing shining man even wrong ain't right

[Chorus]

Got no money just the echo inside

Counting cracks where my hope used to hide

Life's a river but the current won’t flow

Blues fill the holes where the light won’t go

[Verse 3]

Man on the corner he said I’m you in ten

Laughed so hard I forgot to pretend

But the laugh turned sour as I hit the floor

Reality tapped danced and showed me the door
