Our red Catty is kinda rattly
Neith her blue hood today (oh no)
We’ll float that boat til she’s broke
Then call us some triple A(fix it)

That old car can’t get too far
Can’t go on a vacay (oh no)
I’ll paste my face to Space Mountain
And frame that holiday (how sad)

Inside we’ll freeze; we cut the heat
Cause we could not pay (oh no)
I’ll get cozy on the floor
I sleep there anyway

I’m poor, whatever
It’s not forever
I will do better 
Some day

I may be stuck now
When I’m grown I’ll
Build my future
Pave a road there
Make my own way

My big sis; she grew real quick
I wear her clothes today (oh no)
pants in a pile sweep the tile
That’s my style, okay? (okay)

I’ll be cool when I’m at school
Stitchin tags to a fake (oh no)
But cheap jeans and jacked up teeth
Are givin’ me away (uh oh)

I break my arm down on our farm
And it’ll stay that way (oh no)
I re-break that thing and make a sling
To save us a co-pay

Crackers each day at lunch (oh no)
Glued up shoes on broken parts (fix em)
One happy meal for 3 of us (how sad)
Declined cards, abandoned carts

They’re giving me away
Givin’ me away
They’re givin’ me away, hey hey hey

Make My Own Way
