Takin All the Plastic (Leavin’ All the Bills Behind)
my baby left me
left me sad and cryin (high & dry)
x2
she said I’m takin the plastic
leaving all these bills behind
I got a hearing monday down in
bankruptcy court number nine
2x
My baby won’t be there with me
an neither wil my credit ine
>Oh baby those checks you wrote
to the dress and jewelry stores
You hung so much bad paper
they won’t take my (dough) cash no more
>Telecredits got a file on you
takes ten thousand floppy disks
TRW blew a main frame
just counting your bad checks
>You drove me to the poorhouse
and shoved me thru the door
but first ya picked my pocket
to make sure they was no more
alternate verse 2:
I got a hearing monday down in
bankruptcy court number nine
My baby won’t be there with me
an neither wil my credit ine
I got a hearing monday down in
bankruptcy court number nine
