Cover art for Bone Broke lyrics by White Stripes, The

from the lyric booklet:

Look closer you can see How I been running it I got a dollar bill in the cockpit Surprised being white is a black hole? I got another job at the liquor store Damn, I'm bone broke

They got a white pony in a stable and ride him when the doggie isn't able But he don't really care, 'cause they pay him But still a black suit is gonna shake him down Oh well I'm bone broke Broke as I'll ever be

Look another way girl I'm tellin ya God gave seven minutes right to ya and your mother put her money into platinum so that you wouldn't have to pay Attention Right?

I'm leaning on a rick with my nails I'm tellin 'em the money's in the mail Keep showing that my bones Never fake it but still a brick bank is gonna break it down Oh well I'm bone broke

Look another way girl I'm tellin ya God gave seven minutes right to ya Your mother put her money into platinum and now you never have to pay Attention Do you?
