Billy Joe Shaver - Old Five and Dimers

Текст песни

I’ve spent a lifetime making 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
For 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 Fenced yards ain’t hole cards and like as not never will be Reason for rhymers and old five and dimers like me It’s taking me so long and now that I know 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 Too much ain’t enough for old five and dimers like me Yeah, an old five and dimer is all I really meant to be
