We´ve been selling off our books and records Instruments our grandparents played We´ve been selling off our books and records But we´re gonna buy them back some day
For the last two years the rent keeps getting higher And our neighbors all have cars we can´t afford I´m working two jobs now and, brother, I stay tired But we could always stand to make a little more
The way it goes I doubt we´ll be here by December We both know there´s gonna have to be a break I priced my blood to try and turn back on our power Oh, Lord, there´s got to be a better way We´ve been selling off our books and records Instruments our grandparents played We´ve been selling off our books and records But we´re gonna buy them back some day
These past few winters have been harder than expected
Unknown numbers call us all hours of the day Both been learning how to cook our suppers cheaper And stretch it out until we get paid
The way it goes, I doubt we ever will retire But the cast iron will be seasoned well by then And if we´re lucky we´ll have moments by the fire Put some records on and read a book again
We´ve been selling off our books and records Instruments our grandparents played We´ve been selling off our books and records But we´re gonna buy them back some day
And down at Tommy´s Pawn, there´s an unheard song Buried in my grandpa´s guitar By a box of antique photos I got when granny Marie passed on
We learned hard to take it on the chin Get our bills caught up in time to fall behind again We´ve been selling off our books and records Instruments our grandparents played We´ve been selling off our books and records But we´re gonna buy them back some day
