Invested in horses but wound up with glue
My stock was rebounding until I met you
You left me with bills that were all overdue
And the bail-out baby blues

Your heart it was bankrupt ahead of its time
Your leaving's a blessing, your loving's sub-prime
I sit here with nothing, not even a dime
cept the bail-out baby blues

You were selling me short while sipping my wine
You brokered a merger with two friends of mine
I hungered for love and you fed me a line
It's the bail-out baby blues

My interest was risin'--Until the horizon
Came up from behind--Like a pipe to the head
They say it's defining--A cloud has a lining
That glistens with silver--But mine's only lead and I said

I'm too sad to live but I'm too poor to die
You bailed like a pilot whose airplane won't fly
You kissed me hello then you knifed me goodbye
It's the bail-out baby blues
the bail out baby blues

I hope I never meet another girl like you--3 times
'cause I don't need the bail out baby blues
the bail out baby blues
no I dont need
the bail out baby blues
