NICKELS & DIMES (Curran/Broyd/Pavelites)*
Nickels and dimes, hard luck times I'm reachin' down deep but all I got left are my nickels and dimes
I can't get ahead 'cause of nickels and dimes
I've walked the long and winding road;
I've heard every story told
There ain't nuthin' these eyes ain't seen yeah, worked my fingers to the bone I got blood from a stone Had so little so damn long
Nickels and dimes, hard luck times I'm reachin' down deep but all I got are my nickels and dimes Nickels and dimes, hard luck times I looked in my pockets and all I got left are my nickels and dimes Now the days have turned to years cll the brandy wine and beers
But I'm standing where I wanna be yeah cnd somehow, somewhere on the way I can still hear you say that money can't buy you everything, but it sure would help

Nickels and dimes, hard luck times I'm reachin' down deep but all I got are my nickels and dimes Nickels and dimes, hard luck times I dream about dollars but all I got are my nickels and dimes
c pocket full of bills would sure feel fine;
I got nuthin' but nickels and dimes
Penny ante poor boy, another dollar, 'nother day.
Can't sleep away your life boy 'cause you know it don't pay, it don't pay.
