Now I am Broke

I only drink the cheapest wine
or make my own right off the vine
and I don’t ever chew or smoke
So tell me why am I so broke

I grow just weeds instead of grass,
send all my mail out second class.
I don’t snort snuff and never coke,
So tell me why I could be broke

I walk a lot, don't own a  car
so can not travel very far.
Airplane flights, I think as joke,
cross country trips don't keep me broke.

I stay at home, don’t bus to work,
don’t own work clothes cause work, I shirk.
I'm not a wheel, not even spoke,
I guess that’s why I turn up broke.
