Old Five And Dimers Like Me |
| Yea, well I spent a lifetime |
| Just makin up my mind to be |
| More than the measure of |
| What I thought others could see |
| Good luck and those fast bucks |
| Are too few, and too far between |
| Those other Cadillac drivers |
| And those old five and dimers like me |
| You know, she stood beside me |
| Tellin me she would be something to lean on |
| When everything ran out on me |
| No fenced yards ain t hole cards |
| Like as not, never will be |
| Any reason for rhymers |
| And those old five and dimers like me |
| Now I ve searched for so long |
| Now that I ve found that I believe |
| All that I do or say |
| Is all I ever will be |
| Too far and too high and too deep |
| Ain t too much to be |
| Yeah, too much just ain t enough |
| For those old five and dimers like me |
| I guess an old five and dimer |
| Is all I intended to be |
