Granddaddy was a gambler Never ever seemed to win Made a bad bet with the wrong man We never saw Granddaddy again Then Granny ran off with a grifter She didn't even leave a note Them kids had to raise each other And that's about all she wrote That's why Mama ain't gonna quit drinkin' Brother gonna always be broke Sister won't ever do nothing Cause she's too damn high on dope I ain't judging nobody Naw it ain't much better for me I'm just another bad Apple That didn't fall far from the tree Mama walks around in her bathrobe Suckin Stoli down all day Brother run down to the dog track To throw a welfare check away Sister's on her back in the Bowery Just enough to get her fix She couldn't earn it turnin tables So she turned to turnin tricks That's why mama ain't gonna quit drinkin' Brother gonna always be broke Sister won't ever do nothing Cause she's too damn high on dope I ain't judging nobody Naw it ain't much better for me I'm just another bad Apple That didn't fall far from the tree That's why Mama ain't gonna quit drinkin' Brother gonna always be broke Sister won't ever do nothing Cause she's too damn high on dope I ain't judging nobody Naw it ain't much better for me I'm just another bad Apple That didn't fall far from the tree I'm just another bad apple That didn't fall far from the tree
