Nickels And Dimes |
I’m a Cadillac tramp at the end of his road |
A swap meet rat who’s sittin' on gold yeah baby |
I’m a guitar gangster without a tune |
I’m the baseball bat that’s waiting to swing |
Your loan shark friend with the broken knees yeah baby |
I’m a penthouse pauper with nothing to do Yeah, yeah, yeah… I’m chasing nickels and dimes |
The rest of the world passes me by Nah, nah, nah… I’m just wasting my time |
I’m just sitting here and wondering why |
I’m the high rollin' creep that’s in too deep |
With the slicked back hair and the silver teeth yeah baby |
I’m a vagabond king with a stolen crown |
I’m a jailhouse poet, a genius, a fool |
I’m the pimp who’s lost his cool yeah baby |
I’m your first class taste in a second class town |
Yeah, yeah, yeah… I’m chasing nickels and dimes |
While the rest of the world passes me by Nah, nah, nah… I’m just wasting my time |
I’m just sitting here and wondering why yea |
I’m a loaded gun pointed at the mirror |
A drugstore cowboy whose end is near yeah baby |
I’m a big time schemer with broken down dreams |
I’m a derelict rebel without a cause |
I ain’t the cat with the sharpest claws no baby |
Cause sometimes life just ain’t what it seems |
Yeah, yeah, yeah… I’m chasing nickels and dimes… |
