[Verse 1]
Johnny’s truck died in the diner lot
Rudy’s last smoke turned to rain
Boss man docked ‘em for bein’ late
Same old story
Same damn pain
Flat tire Friday
Busted boots
Paycheck gone in a blink
Two barstools and a busted jukebox
Cheap whiskey
Can’t afford to think (uh)
[Chorus]
Bad luck brothers
Down on empty
Two broke souls kickin’ dust and envy
But the world flips quick when the sky turns ugly
Thunder cracks
Then a bag full of money
(yeah, a bag full of maybe)
Bad luck brothers start laughin’ bloody
High-five hands shakin’
Hearts beat muddy
‘Cause the world looks bright through a bag full of money
[Verse 2]
Storm rolled in like a blacked-out stage
Power cut
Whole town blind
Johnny kicks somethin’ in the gravel lot
Heavy canvas
Tight-tied twine
Rudy says
“Man
That ain’t ours”
Johnny grins
“It sure ain’t theirs”
Zipper screams
Stacks stare back
Green paper sayin’
“Who dares?” (hey!)
[Chorus]
Bad luck brothers
Down on empty
Two broke souls kickin’ dust and envy
But the world flips quick when the sky turns ugly
Thunder cracks
Then a bag full of money
(yeah, a bag full of maybe)
Bad luck brothers start laughin’ bloody
High-five hands shakin’
Hearts beat muddy
‘Cause the world looks bright through a bag full of money
[Bridge]
Pulled to the shoulder of a long dark highway
Rudy’s like
“Man
What if this goes sideways?”
Johnny lights a smile in the dashboard glow
Says
“Worst luck’s behind us
Floor it and go” (go!)
[Chorus]
Bad luck brothers ain’t broke now
Buddy
Boots on the gas
Minds still muddy
But the world flips gold when your hands feel heavy
From a torn-up
Rain-soaked bag full of money
(bag full of maybe)
Bad luck brothers turn wild and rowdy
Singin’ out loud
Off-key
So proudly
‘Cause the worst luck broke with a bag full of money
