OLD FIVE AND DIMERS LIKE ME
|
(B.J. Shaver)
|
|
I've spent a lifetime makin' up my mind to be
|
More than the measure of what I thought others could see
|
Good luck and fast bucks are too far and too few between
|
Cadillac buyers and old five and dimers like me
|
|
She stood beside me letting me know she would be
|
Something to lean on when everything ran out on me
|
Well-fenced yards ain't old cars, and I guess not never will be
|
The reason for rhymers and old five and dimers like me
|
|
It's takin' me so long now that I know I believe
|
All that I do will say is all I ever will be
|
Too much ain't enough for old five and dimers like me
|
Too far, too high, and too deep ain't too much to see
|
And old five and dimers is all I intended to be
|
