Week 51c - Broke Christmas (221216)

from Song A Week, Volume 7 by James Tristan Redding

/

lyrics

I'm dreaming of a broke Christmas
Just like the ones I've always known
Where the songs I'm pitching
Get zero listens
'Cause I've been banned from Music Row

I said, I'm dreaming of a broke Christmas
With every collect call I dial
May your songs be better than mine
And read that contract in between the lines

I said, I'm dreaming of a broke Christmas
Just like so many gone before
Where the A&R guys
Told A&R lies
So we the writers all stayed poor

I'm dreaming of a broke Christmas
With every strange Springwater show
May I avoid bro country radio
And may all my Christmas' be broke
