Old Five And Dimers Like Me

Yeah, 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

Somethin' to lean on

Everythin' 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, alright



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, alright
