Content
The song tells the story of a goodhearted man trying to fight off bill collectors. The first verse is that phone call trying those hurting for jobs and money know all too well. He brushes him off saying/ '"When I get it / you'll get it / Times are tough, get in line and wait / When I get it you'll get it / And that's all you're getting today."'
He shows a wry sense of humor in the song's second verse. '"My ex wife's at the door knocking / Lord that woman won't leave me alone / Same question, where's my money / Well honey you can't get blood from a stone./"'
