LYRICS

Pardon my life, pardon my song
I hope you're not nervous, I'm not gonna stay long
The one installment, I've made on your heart
Is not enough to cover what we're willin' to start
'Cause I'm a Flat Broke Love
Lord I'm a Flat Broke Love

I'm up or I'm down, never constant or sound
Empty my pockets full of rain
The friends that I've loved, never feel I've been there
I've never left a grateful one
'Cause I'm a Flat Broke Love,
Well I'm a Flat Broke Love
Yeah I'm a Flat Broke Love
Baby I'm a Flat Broke Love

'Cause I'm a Flat Broke Love,
Yeah I'm a Flat Broke Love
Well I'm a Flat Broke Love
Lord I'm a Flat Broke Love

I'll state you this claim, you've all played the game
You've all upset somebody's cart
I think you forgot, love needs more than one heart
Without it it can't hold a true flame.

Cause it's a Flat Broke Love
It's a Flat Broke Love
Yeah it's a Flat Broke Love
Well it's a Flat Broke Love
Lord it's a Flat Broke Love
It's a Flat Broke Love
Baby it's a Flat Broke Love
It's a Flat Broke Love
Flat Broke Love
Baby...
